GENUKI/Devon: Appledore Congregational Church Marriages

APPLEDORE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH MARRIAGES

Transcribed by David Carter, from B 151 add/1-52; 59; (Congregational later URC 19th to 20th Century)

Extensive efforts have been made to identify the relevant church authority, in order to obtain explicit permission to make these records available online. None of the people contacted have raised any objections, but it is unclear who is in a position to give formal permission. The document is therefore being made available on an interim basis, and will of course be removed immediately on receipt of an official request to do so.

Add 9, is a large record book containing a historical account of the church, taken from Congregational Magazine for January 1825

Details of 1st church meeting 1856, list of members attending.
Church minutes up to 1909.
Then Rolls of church members taken in 1856, last one in 1909.
