The earliest register of Christenings, Marriages, and Burials now remaining in the parish chest of Whaddon, dates from 1674 ("30th day of December") to (probably) 1711. It consists of fifteen sheets of parchment, containing thirty pages for entries: the size is small quarto, and the lower portions would seem to have been pared away. It has suffered much from damp; and in consequence, the entries at the bottom of many pages are illegible, as well as those on several pages near the end of the volume. The years are clearly marked at the beginning, but are difficult to trace elsewhere. There are several entries connected with the parish of St. Aldate, Gloucester.      H.
