Carlby Registers & BTs: The earliest surviving registers date from 1668, and the BTs from 1562. However, many of the BTs from before 1668 are missing, including the majority from 1562-84, several from the late 1620s and the 1630s, and all from 1640-62.

Some of the BTs seem to have the wrong years entered for the coverage dates given at the top of the page, and there are several instances where there appear to be two different transcripts covering the same (approximate) period. Some of these are also dated at the bottom of the page with the signatures, so the correct years can be deduced from this. However, it does mean that the exact year in which some events took place is open to interpretation, and I have indicated dates which fall into this category with a "?" before the year.

Also, most of the earlier BTs (before c1600) cover a period from Michaelmas to Michaelmas, whereas most of the later ones cover the more usual period of 25 March to 25 March (or thereabouts). Thus, unless the exact coverage of each transcript is noted, there is a further potential for confusion as to the year in which some events took place.
