Excerpt from The Registers of Caundle Bishop, Dorset: From 1570 to 1814
The Registers of Caundle Bishop, from their commencement in 1570 until the year 1814, are comprised in three volumes.
Vol. I is of parchment, in a limp parchment cover, the leaves, thirty-six in number, measuring 20 ins. by 6¿ ins.
The entries begin on the second leaf with Baptisms, 1570, on the eighteenth leaf the Marriages begin, on the twenty-fourth leaf the Burials, also in 1570, but Burials for 1718-38 are recorded on the twenty-second and twenty-third leaves.
The greater part of the twenty-sixth leaf has been cut away, but probably nothing has been lost thereby.
On the verso of the twenty-ninth leaf are records of Benefactions, which are continued on the thirty-fifth.
The last leaf in the volume contains only the entry of a marriage not "in the Origenall, " dated 1590, written in the scribes hand, - and the election of Waywardens in 1685, when the Register was used to record the entry, as though the usual Waywardens' Book was not at hand.
It will be noticed that there are several lacunæ in the volume, extending over a considerable period.
The Register, to the middle of 1598, is a transcript.
