ENTRIES IN THE BISHOPS TRANSCRIPTS FOR MELCOMBE REGIS WHICH RELATE TO RADIPOLE

BAPTISMS, MARRIAGES & BURIALS (1731-1756)

 

This transcription was made by Will Stevens from the originals held in the Wiltshire County Record Office in Trowbridge. Only those entries have been transcribed which specifically relate to Radipole. Therefore, researchers should bear in mind that, although the general quality of the recording seems to have been good (much better than with some later BTs for Melcombe Regis and Radipole), it may well be that some Radipole entries were not marked as such, and so are not included below. Also, it seems possible that inhabitants of Radipole may have used the church at Melcombe Regis for Baptisms and Marriages, and so the annotation ‘Radipole’ may be missing for this reason also.

What follows is a literal line-by-line transcription of the originals, and it reflects the, fairly neat, columnar layout of the material. For convenience, names are shown in bold. Parentheses, (), are used to indicate dates deduced from other entries which have not been transcribed. Square brackets, [ ], are used for the transcriber’s comments.
