Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book contains a transcript of the first register book of Walsall Church, which encompasses the years 1570 - 1649. Originally compiled in the 12th century, the church itself was later altered and rebuilt, with its present design dating back to 1817. The original parchment transcript was likely made at the behest of the 1597 injunction to keep a register of baptisms, deaths, and marriages. The author diligently chronicles almost 80 years of local history, giving insights into not only the lives of those living in Walsall during the Elizabethan and Stuart eras but also into the national events of the time. The register documents an array of entries, from baptisms and burials to marriages and deaths from the plague, providing a glimpse into the lives and times of Walsall's residents. It also notes significant occurrences such as the death of Queen Elizabeth I and the outbreak of the Civil War, offering valuable insights into how these events impacted the lives of ordinary people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
