The
parish register fiche/film list (PDF 284 Kb) gives details of
the years covered on microfiche/film for each parish in Suffolk,
the number of fiche and/or film and whether we have received
permission to sell copies.
Years covered column
These are the earliest and latest date of entries included in the
fiche/film. There may be gaps in the registers and not all events
may be covered by these years. If you wish
to cover particular dates, please
contact
us.
No. of fiche column
This number indicates how many fiche cover the registers for
the parish.
For example:
Acton All Saints has a total of 17 fiche covering 1605 to 1900. To
order these fiche would be 17 times the price of each fiche plus
handling and postage for 17 fiche.
Where possible, the registers have been duplicated on microfiche.
However, some registers are too large to be copied onto fiche and
therefore are only available on microfilm.
Permission received column
For some parishes, we do not have permission from the incumbent to
supply copies of their registers in microform, so you should look
at this column to see whether you can purchase the parish in which
you are interested. An explanation of the comments are as
follows:
No: we do not have permission to supply copies therefore the parish
is not available
Yes: we can supply copies
Apply each time: copies of these are available; you will need to
apply for permission from the incumbent before we can process your
order. Please print off the
letter of request and contact us by e-mail for the name and
address of the incumbent to whom you should send the letter. You
will need to fill in the details in the letter before posting
it off to the incumbent. If the incumbent agrees to your request
then the bottom part of the form will be returned to the Ipswich
Record Office and we will place your order upon receipt.
