REMEMBER

● As the refusal to bear arms is central to Quaker beliefs, you may be able to find references to Quakers in the records of Conscientious Objectors, held by TNA.

● Quakers, the Society of Friends, used the Julian Calendar up until March 1752, after which the vast majority of their records adopted the Gregorian Calendar. According to the Julian Calendar, the first day of the new year was 25 March ‘Lady Day’, so a full year would run from 25 March to 24 March.

● Roman Catholic registers were generally not kept before 1778 and many of them are written in Latin. Catholic baptism registers will usually show the names of godparents.

● The Historic Chapels Trust site (www.hct.org.uk) hosts images and information about redundant chapels and places of worship.
