Phillimore & Co, 1984, Hardcover, First

Previous owners name in black on bottom of page edges, otherwise a fine copy in fine dustjacket. It includes the famous county "parish" maps, which show pre-1832 parochial boundaries, color-coded probate jurisdictions, starting dates of surviving registers, and churches and chapels, where relevant. Topographical maps face each "parish" map, and show the contemporary road system and other local features. The Index lists the parishes, with grid references to the county maps. It indicates the present whereabouts of original registers and copies, and whether a parish is included in other indexes. It also gives registration districts and census information. ; 280 x 210mm; 281 pages
