Excerpt from The Registers of Winestead: In Holderness, Co. York, 1578-1812I. The first is of parchment, and contains thirty folios, besides the fiy-leaf. It measures 12 inches in length by 75 inches in width, and is in good preservation, though the ink of the earliest entries is in several places very faded, and the writing difficult to decipher. The entries have been originally begun in three different places - for baptisms, marriages, and burials respectively - but the intervening pages have been filled up without any apparent method, and the order is consequently most irregular. A key has therefore been supplied in the present work, to enable the entries of any particular year to be found readily. This Book covers the years from 1578 to 1719.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
