The Registers in the present volume have been transcribed by the Rev. J. Harvey Bloom, Rector of Whitchurch, near Stratford-upon-Avon, the Rev. W. Symonds, late Vicar of Frocester, but now of Great Sherston, in Wilts, and the Rev. R. H. M. Bouth, Rector of Elkstone, and to them the Editor desires to tender his best thanks. Thanks are also due to the parish clergy for leave to print the various registers. Their names are mentioned under the several parishes.
This, the sixteenth volume of the Gloucestershire Parish Register series, contains the Marriage Registers of four parishes, including the very important Registers of Henbury and Fairford. One hundred and nineteen Marriage Registers have now been printed in this series, usually to 1812, but in many cases to 1837.
