Durham University Library Archives and Special Collections DDR/EA/PBT/2/229 dates 1826-1879 Parish Register transcripts are available to search free online at FamilySearch Historical Records. Engineering work will be undertaken in future to improve access to the Parish Register transcripts. The transcripts can be viewed at present under Rennington Northumberland and will be reloaded in the correct county.
The dates of the post-1760 transcripts have been noted in detail and sometimes only cover years. For most parishes in the collection there are gaps in the sequence of transcripts. It is advisable to consult the original parish registers for these years and events.
