Parish Registers

Baptisms

No baptism registers have been deposited with the Dorset History Centre in Dorchester.

The priest-in-charge and churchwardens declined our request in 2010 to transcribe the baptism registers held at the church for the benefit of researchers. However, researchers can view the baptism registers in person at the church by making an appointment*.

*Please email us at info@kingstonopc.org.uk if you wish to make an appointment to view the baptism registers in person at the church and we will put you in contact with the priest-in-charge. There is a standard charge, laid down by the Archbishop’s Council, of £19 for each copy of an entry provided. Should a search take longer than an hour, an extra £16 per hour would be payable.

Marriage Registers

Marriage registers for the period dating from 1865 to 1967 have been deposited at the Dorset History Centre in Dorchester. The entries for the period 1865 to 1954 have now been transcribed and can be accessed by clicking the Marriages link to the right.

Burial Registers

No burial registers have yet been deposited with the Dorset History Centre in Dorchester.

Information from the registers held at the church was indexed in 2004 by Patricia Jones and information for burials from 1877 to 1977 has been reproduced as a pdf available by clicking on the Burials link to the right.
