Copying From Parish Registers

In Person

Copying of original registers is not permitted, but visitors to the Manchester Room@City Library are welcome to make microfilm print-outs on the self-service printers. We charge 50p (A4) or 80p (A3) per print.

By Post

We offer a postal service for copies from the microfilms of some parish registers. To find out whether we hold the microfilm copies of registers of a particular parish please check this church register guide (microfilms are listed as MFPR).

We cannot accept orders for copies from pre-printed registers:

  • pre-1813 for baptisms and burials
  • pre-1754 for marriages
  • all pre-1837 Nonconformist registers

Copies are only supplied if the precise church name (e.g. Hulme St Paul) and date (day and month as well as year) are quoted. Copies (including p & p) cost:

  • £2.50 (A4)
  • £2.80 (A3)
  • Postage is an extra £2 for addresses outside the UK.

Cheques and postal orders should be made payable to "Manchester City Council". If you wish to place an order please print out, complete and return this form, with the correct payment in sterling, to: The Manchester Room@City Library, Elliot House, 151 Deansgate, Manchester, M3 3WD.
