Out of order entries are left as in original record.
The Curate often spells the same surname differently within the same entry.
The given names Robte, Wyllm, and Leond have diacritical marks over them, indicating they have been contracted. Here they are written out as Robert, William, and Leonard.

“From 25th March 1604 to 1st September |
|
1613 – These Registers are written on a |
|
number of oblong pages which once may have |
|
formed a volume, but which are now unbound |
|
and without covers, and many of the leaves |
|
are detached. The entries are very clearly |
|
and neatly written and were nearly all |
|
made by the Rev John Hollinworth. As there |
|
are no transcripts of these Registers at |
|
Chester and they are the earliest relating |
|
to the parish of St. Michaels which have |
|
been preserved, no apology is required for |
|
here printing them.” |
