Bishop’s transcripts contain much of the same information as parish registers, so they can serve as a replacement 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 sometimes recorded 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.
