Below is a guide to the churches currently in the Diocese of Gloucester and
the parish registers that may be available to search at Gloucestershire
Archives. Please note that the date is an approximate guide to the first
register that has survived, however, all events may not be covered from that
date. Neither is it an indication that the registers are complete and
legible throughout. Some of the more recent (and in some cases, not so
recent!) registers may still be located
at the Church.
