Parish Records for County Durham

[Morfydd from Mid Glam]

Would anyone know where I would find the parish records for Quebec in County Durham.
I am looking for the birth or baptism of my GG Grandfather, I need to find out if he was born in Quebec, County Durham, (which I had in my records) as a relative I have been in touch with says he was born in Quebec, Canada.
He was born about 1826.

I would have thought they would be in the Durham Records Office.

Found this site that says where Quebec is to be found

Quebec, County Durham

I think there's a FHS for Durham which might be able to do a lookup for you.

This web site explains the villages (including Quebec) that are covered by four churches in the area... I have been trying to get you an easier ( and shorter) link..... but sorry I can't...

Thanks JBee and Jean, I'll take a look at those sites now.

You could try this website :- Durham Records Online: Search Census and Church Records

It's pay to view, but free to search. Hope you find what you are looking for.

Thanks Helen, just looked on there, but no joy.

Morfydd have you looked here?
Diocese of Durham Bishops Transcripts 1700-1900.

FamilySearch Record Search

It's a bit difficult as you just have to browse through but good luck.

You could also try asking in the uk-northeast list if any members have the records for the area.

If he was born 1826ish won't he be on the census?
