Excerpt from The Nonconformist Register, of Baptisms, Marriages, and Deaths: 1644-1702, 1702-1752, Generally Known as the Northowram of Coley Register, but Comprehending Numerous Notices of Puritans and Anti-Puritans in Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cheshire, London, &C I am sorry that so long time has elapsed since the publica tion of the Register was announced. The delay has occurred in connection with the printer's arrangements. The Indexes have cost an incredible amount of labour, but having done the work alone, (probably references.) I believe there will be found but few errors. There is a tendency in indexing to put the number of the page one too little, as 78 for 79. As only a limited Subscription List can be expected for such books, economy has been a great feature in the get-up, but the accuracy has not suffered. It is an individual effort, backed by no public Society, at a third the cost of Society prices, and done by an Amateur pro bono publico.

We all have Nonconformist ancestors. In the mid-nineteenth century almost half of the English population were Nonconformists. And there were very few villages where there was not at least one Nonconformist chapel. Local and family historians need to be aware of the diversity of Nonconformity, and of the many sources which will enable them to trace the activities of Nonconformist forebears.Stuart Raymond's handbook provides an overview of those sources. He identifies the numerous websites, libraries and archives that local and family historians need to consult. These are described in detail, their strengths and weaknesses are pointed out, and the contribution currently made by the internet is highlighted.Most Nonconformist denominations are discussed not just the mainstream Presbyterians, Congregationalists, Quakers and Methodists, but also obscure sects such as the Muggletonians and Glasites, and even the two groups who regularly appear on our doorsteps today Jehovahs Witnesses and the Mormons.The religious activities of our Nonconformist ancestors tell us a great deal about them, and provide fascinating insights into their lives.
