Nevertheless, parish registers are extremely important records for researching family history from the sixteenth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChurch records did not come to an end when the state introduced Civil Registration. Religious sects continued to record those who had undergone its ceremonies long after 1837, even until the present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe search for the family usually begins with information learned from a census return. If the place of birth of an individual is stated, it may be that this was where the child was baptised. However, place of birth and place of baptism were not always the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume compiled by F J Parker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SG 2nd Hand Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56383542002050,"sku":null,"price":4.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/3715\/1673\/files\/NIPRblank.png?v=1771339027","url":"https:\/\/societyofgenealogists-shop.myshopify.com\/products\/national-index-of-parish-registers-vol-9-part-4-essex-copy","provider":"Society of Genealogists","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
