Excerpt from Berkshire Parish Registers, Vol. 1: Marriages The present volume is the first of a series which the Editor hopes may be continued until all the Parish Registers of Berkshire have been printed. The advantage of having our ancient parish registers thus rendered accessible to the student is obvious. Great progress has been made In the neighbouring counties: no less than fourteen volumes of Gloucestershire Registers, eleven of Hampshire and six of Wiltshire have already been issued. The Editor trusts that, now the Berkshire series has been commenced, it will be possible to issue two volumes annually; but to secure such progress both transcribers and subscribers are requisite.
