17th Century Birth, Marriage and Death Records
from
Eccles Parish, Lancashire, England
During the first half of 2004, 20 members of the AFO spent
countless hours combing through microfilm copies of original documents.
Each time the surname Allred (in various spellings) and/or Pemberton was found,
that document was copied. Below you'll find those record copies. We
welcome your contributions, thoughts, and research efforts if you would like to
join us in future research projects.
From the book The Registers of the Parish Church of Eccles
in the County of Lancaster, Baptisms, Burials, and Marriages, 1564 - 1632 Transcribed
and Edited by A. E. Hodder, M.B., B.C., Wigan. LDS FHC Micofilm #
0093727. Copies of pages from this book provided by AFO member Carlene
Trouth of Farmington, New Mexico. (This book contains
transcriptions, so we are just posting the info here instead of scanning the
actual pages of the book.)
Preface
The Parish Church of Eccles lies four miles to the west of Manchester in the
midst of a huge Parish bounded by the parishes of Manchester, Prestwich,
Radcliffe, Bolton, Leigh, and Winwick; the southern limit being the river Irwell.
The Parish originally contained the townships of Barton-upon-Irwell, Clifton,
Pendlebury, Pendleton, and Worsley, and comprised an area of 22,028 statute
acres, ten miles long by five miles broad.
In the Whalley Coucher Book there is mention of a confirmation of a grant of a
fourth part of the church by Albert Grelli, - this must have been in or prior to
1185, the probably year of his death.
The volume here printed is the earliest existing Register. It measures 15 inches
by 5 1/2, and consists of 132 leaves of parchment bound in leather. the
entries, generally well written, are confused in a most extraordinary manner,
and the greatest credit is due to our Editor for unravelling the
difficulties. It may confidently be asserted that the present issue will
reveal much which even the most careful search of the original would never have
discovered.
The Episcopal Transcripts, 1610 - 1632, have been compared with the original
Register - a most toilsome process in the present instance.
Our thanks are due to the Vicar of Eccles for his ready assent to the
transcription, printing and publishing of the Volume, and also to the
every-courteous Mr. Price of the Episcopal Registry at Chester.
