England, Essex, Bishop's Transcripts, 1779-1892

What is in This Collection?

This collection contains images of birth, baptism, marriage, and burial records from the county of Essex for the years 1779-1892.

Bishop’s transcripts contain more or less the same information as parish registers, so they are an invaluable resource when a parish register has been damaged, destroyed, or otherwise lost. Bishop's transcripts are often of value even when parish registers exist, as priests often recorded either additional or different information in their transcripts than they did in the original registers.

Additional records and/or images may be added to this collection in the future.
