Tring in 1947

Parish Church - Baptisms

The Church registers, which go back to 1566, and contain entries about some of George Washington’s successors [sic] have been microfilmed for us, the cost being defrayed by money from America. One copy of this microfilm will be given to the Vicar for safe keeping, so that if the registers did get destroyed we should have an alternative record up to 1850.
