Search Burials
- The records in this database have been donated by volunteer transcribers worldwide. Although every effort has been made to ensure that the transcriptions are as accurate as possible, researchers are advised to consult the originals for themselves. Unless mentioned otherwise in Transcriber Notes, the source for each record is the Parish Register.
- Where 'Film No.' appears in the display of the record, it probably refers to the LDS film number which can be found on the FamilySearch.org website
- The wildcard (%) is applied by default to the right hand side of some search terms. To obtain more results, keep your search terms to a minimum e.g. to find all variations for Stephen, search for 'St' in the forename field.
- Parish names should be entered as in other searches e.g. 'Juliot, St.' rather than 'St Juliot' but 'Jul' would be sufficient
- The calendar prior to 1752 was different. The year ran from 25th March to the following 24th March. See pre-1752 Calendar for details.
- Early records sometimes contain letters which were interchangeable at the time, such as u and v or i and j. Try searching for both spellings for surnames such as DAVIE/DAUIE.
- Remember that some forenames (and on rare occasions, surnames) are abbreviated in the source records so make sure you allow for this in your searches.
- Abbreviations used: BT - Bishops' Transcripts, W - burials in woollen, C - burials in a cemetery rather than a Church graveyard, see details here.
- Where the Parish is displayed as a newspaper, the Burial Date is the date of the edition of the newspaper, e.g. the West Briton was published weekly on Friday.
