Bothenhampton

Burials 1726 to 1812

Transcribed from the Parish Registers and donated to the Dorset OPC Project by Kim Parker

Arranged according to the Gregorian Calendar, with the Julian year indicated to the left of the forward slash (/) in those years when the Julian Calendar, which ran from March 25th to March 24th, was in use (i.e. prior to 1752, 1751 being the transition year).

The Parish Register is difficult to read in places, so readers are invited to use this transcript as a guide only and to consult the original at the Dorset History Centre.

Spelling was phonenetic until the late nineteenth century and may change with every clerk.

Note at the beginning of the register: "Memorandum. 1730. That this Book cost 35 shillings, and was bought for the Register Book of the Parish of Bothenhampton. John Sutton being Vicar & Mr. Joseph Hardy being Church-Warden of ye said Parish."
