Puxton parish or other records from 1543 published by on Sun, 05/02/2017 - 5:09
Has anyone got access to the Puxton parish records from 1543? I am looking for information on the Urch or Frye surname present in the records up till 1700.

Hi Tricia
I am not sure why they were missing but the early transcripts for Puxton have been reinstated and are now available for Society members to view online.

Hi Tricia
The general register for Winscombe starts in 1662 but I see that the bishop transcripts start in 1591 but I dont know how complete these records are. If you can be more specific on the surnames you are looking for, perhaps one of our Saturday Library helpers will have a look to see what is available.
I noted Tricia's query concerning Winscombe parish records and I too would be interested in the early BTs for this parish. My interest is in any referencer to the Jakeway/Jackway/Jacques family and would be grateful if one of the Saturday Library helpers would look at what is available. How should I make contact to request a search?
Winscombe BTs are available on fiche in Weston Library but we found the early entries very difficult to read. If we have more time next week we will give it another go!
