Farway parish register

Although I do not hold copies of the Farway parish register I have been asked questions about it  So to save our time in the future I have provided this page as a guide to it's contents and how and where you can see or obtain details from the Farway parish register

The register is available either as transcripts, micro-fiche or online

Depending on your circumstances & needs the following should get you started

Much of this information is also on GENUKI pages for Farway, so it may be worthwhile checking back there if you get stuck - GENUKI Farway Church records

bar

There are Bishop's transcript films available from the Mormon's at any Family History Centre.

The Bishop's transcripts contain

Baptisms from 1567 to 1884

Marriages from 1574 to 1837

Burials from 1573 to 1938

bar

Transcripts on line using the IGI at Family Search

With the IGI you can use individual names or use the batch number to bring up all the Farway entries

The batch numbers are C050561, M050561 & M050571

Prefix C is Christening & M is Marriage - Burials are not on line

bar

Transcripts of Marriages 1754 - 1837 & Burials 1800 -1837 are available from the  Devon FHS

bar

Micro fiche of the parish register may be purchased from Devon Record Office - the details may be found on the Other Resources page of this site

Best of luck & Good Hunting
