This index has been created from entries recorded in the parish registers and Bishops Transcripts. 

                            All parishes within the modern day county boundary of Northamptonshire are included with the addition of Little Bowden which is now in Leicestershire. 

                            Entries are taken from the Church of England parish registers and all available non-conformist registers (as held at Northamptonshire Records Office).

                            The Soke of Peterborough (now in the county of Cambridgeshire) and Stamford Baron have not been included.

                            There are over 142,000 entries on the index.  The index has been arranged alphabetically, (surname then forename).  All entries between 1700-1751* have been recorded. 

                            *All entries up to Lady Day [March 25^th, 1751]

                            The index has been arranged in the following order :-

OTHER INFORMATION

                            The index is split into alphabetical files using Adobe Acrobat 6.0.  The file extensions are PDF format.  The software that is required to open these

                            is available as a free download from http://www.adobe.com  

                            If an entry contains any additional information then this has been recorded.   This can include birth dates, occupations, and illegitimacy. 

                            All parish register entries between 1700-1750 have been checked against all surviving Bishops Transcripts.  Any additional entries from the Bishops Transcripts

                            that do not appear in the parish register have been recorded.  Any additional information to the parish register entry has also been recorded.  Where there is a significant

                            discrepancy between the parish register and transcript this has also been noted. 

                            Legible entries crossed out of the register have also been recorded. 

                            A list of  abbreviations have been used in the creation of this index :-

                            b.         = born

                            s          = son

                            d          = daughter

                            C of E   = Church of England

                            BT        = Bishops Transcript

                            The parish registers for Kettering, Finedon, Lutton and Little Bowden are not deposited at the NRO. 

                            All BT entries have been recorded for these parishes.  

                            All baptism/birth dates for this index have been converted to the Gregorian calendar.
