  • historical stuff on ebay

    This seller seems to have quite a few family history things. This item is entitled Shropshire Parish Registers - I haven't read the item description and I doubt it is actual parish registers(!) but it may be interesting to some one. Also some Lincolnshire poor law stuff if you look at seller's other items.

    Shropshire Parish Registers -1583-1873- HIGH ERCALL on eBay, also, Antiquarian Collectable, Books, Comics Magazines (end time 12-Apr-08 18:41:33 BST)

    This is what it says.

    " The Register booke of the p'ish of High Arcall ails Ercall Magn', since the burninge of the old register, beginninge the first day of Januarie in the year of our lord god 1585"
    Wendy



    PLEASE SCAN AT 300-600 DPI FOR RESTORATION PURPOSES. THANK YOU!

      Errrrrr...I believe it is illegal to sell original Parish Registers, since the 1975 Archives Act!

        Never fear, OC, it's a transcription/copy from the Shropshire PRS from about 1937.

              The book is on a starting bid of £3.00 which is good value. There is a shop in Shrewsbury that sells alot of these and they usually start at about £25.00.

              Worth a bid Elaine but the postage will be pricey

                Thanks for that Allie - at least I know what sort of price they normally fetch.
                Will be in the UK when it comes up for sale so I might just check it out!

                    I've just noticed this about the postage/shipping:

                    Please collect if you are near enough - Stourbridge / Merry Hill area of the West Midlands

                    That would be useful if you are in the area Elaine.
