“Mr. Ward, evidently, has spared no pains to give the fullest and clearest description of these interesting remains, and the illustrations, of which there are a large number, are excellent. They are illustrations in the truest sense of the word.”—Border Counties Advertiser.

from 1566 to 1812. Copied by Mary E. Noble, Editor of the “Bampton Parish Registers” and Author of “A History of Bampton.” Demy 8vo, cloth, price 21/- net.
These Registers contain many interesting entries of the Sandford, Myddleton, Collinson, Bowman, Law, Holme, Wilkinson, and Langhorne families, and others, and some reference to Parochial events. A list of Vicars is included, and some Local Notes.
“Miss Noble has followed up her admirable edition of the “Bampton Parish Registers” by copying and publishing the Registers of the adjoining parish of Askham, which go back to the year 1566. She has discharged her self-imposed task with her accustomed care and ability, and the handsomely printed and substantially bound volume of 250 pages is not merely a record of marryings, buryings, and christenings in this ancient parish ... but a valuable contribution to the history of the border land.”—The Carlisle Patriot.
