==== Civil Districts ==== | |||
When civil registration of births, marriages and deaths began in 1837, Devon was divided into a number of registration districts, each containing several parishes. The index to the civil records gives the name of the district where an event took place. Click [http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/REG/dev.htm here] to see a list of the civil districts in Devon and the parishes covered by each. | |||

==== Probates<br> ==== | |||
Before 1858, every town and parish in Devonshire was under the probate jurisdiction of several ecclesiastical courts.
