This CD contains all four volumes of William Phillimore's transcripts of marriages from various registers covering Essex on the one CD, in the form of searchable entries. (Phillimore's did not have access to the registers in all parishes when making the transcripts. For parishes included see below).
The transcriptions for each parish contain the whole of the registers for each parish from the first available preserved register (usually in the 1500s and as early as 1538) up to either 1812 or in many cases, 1837. Note: the later entries contain a lot more information than the earlier ones.
Just 150 copies of each volume were printed. These are very rare and sought-after books of incredible value to the family historian.
High quality scanned images of the whole of the original book. This CD has been bookmarked for
easy navigation, and pages can be searched, browsed, enlarged and printed out if required.
