The Parish Registers.-The earliest register book at Uley begins in the year 1668. A list of the bishop's transcripts for Uley has already been given in Vol. III., p. 651. The books are fairly kept, although in a few places the entries are rather irregular. The following extracts comprise all the entries relating to the principal Uley families of Bassett, Holbrow, Morse, Bayley, Poyntz, Austen alias Carver, Small, Gyde, and Rudder, besides those relating to the families of the various rectors, with a few other items of general interest. Those concerning Dorney have already been printed in Vol. III., p. 440. The title-page is as follows:-
