Colchester Primitive Methodist Baptismal Register, 1834-1877

These have been deposited in the Essex and Suffolk Record Offices and are currently [February 2007] held at their branches at Colchester, Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds.

The Colchester branch is expected to close at the end of March 2007 and the documents are likely to be transferred to Chelmsford. <br> <br> As far as is known, no previous transcription of these records has been undertaken in machine-readable form. In addition to depositing a copy with the UK Data Archive it is intended that copies will be deposited with the respective Record Offices, with the present Colchester Methodist Circuit and with the Essex Society for Family History, thus making these data more easily available to academic, local, religious and family historians. <br> <br> This digital resource aims to reflect the subject content of the traditional archival deposit of records created by the Primitive Methodist circuit and congregations.
