Title
Note on registers: 1739-1764 inclusive are missing. Inhabitants ought to try to recover them for registers are frequently as important in proving men's titles to their inheritance as the parchment deeds in their own custody. The paper register should be transcribed on parchment in a strong plain hand, and future entries made on parchment. [Curate] has noticed that entries concerning the families of the parish clerks are more distinct and striking, and in fuller detail than other entries. In a public register all have the same claim to attention. Rule in the best kept registers is to make those entries most striking which relate to clergy or families of long standing such as the Wrights of Great Longsdon or the Longsdons of Little Longsdon.
