    Generally no more than a parish register transcript shows. Occasionaly there was additional information on the BTs, but not necessarily so.

      I've a feeling there are some parishes where the oriiginal parish records are lost but the Bishops Transcripts still exist, (but I then again I might be thinking of those held at Westminster so dont quote me on that)

        I don't like BTs much and prefer to use the original PR where ever possible.

        BTs have an annoying habit of being different from the PR and what seemed cut and dried on the PR is now an agony of indecision and doubt because the BT says something different!
