These are details of baptisms and marriages taken from parish records before 1835, when records of all births, marriages and deaths in England and Wales were centralised.
No attempt has been made to separate Honeybones from Honeybournes, Honeybornes and Honeybuns as, in most cases, it is virtually impossible. The spellings of surnames in these records, therefore, cannot be regarded as evidence of belonging to any particular family. Spellings of forenames and abbreviated forenames are as recorded in the International Genealogical Index.
Because people have never let little things like administrative boundaries restrict their movements, and because several conurbations have spilled over county boundaries, each County is cross-indexed with its neighbouring counties.
NOTE: England switched from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar in 1742. To convert dates between January 1st to March 24th before then, add 1 to the year, e.g. February 1st 1705 in the Julian Calendar (Old Style) is February 1st 1706 in the Gregorian Calendar (New Style).
