Wellington (Somerset) Churchwardens Accounts 1611-1637 & 1656-1683

These Churchwardens Accounts are of particular interest to those researching early Wellington ancestors because the earliest parish register of births, marriages and deaths does not commence until 1683. The original Churchwardens Accounts have been lost, and this publication has used an existing hand written transcript. In two volumes with soft covers. 192 pages in total.
