function DbInfoDescription() { document.write('<p> This database is a collection of historical parish registers from Yorkshire, England. The records in this collection   can range in date from the early 1500s to the mid- to late-1800s. Some non-parish   records may be included from as early as the 12th century. Parish records--primarily   baptisms, marriages, and burials--provide the best source of vital record information   in the centuries before civil registration. The records include baptisms/christenings,   burials, marriages, tombstone inscriptions, obituaries, tax lists, wills, and   other miscellaneous types of records. Also included are some records from non-conformist   churches. All of the data was converted as it was originally presented in various   published registers and books. For this reason, you will find interesting phonetic   spellings and large descriptive tables of contents. </p><p> <b> What should I know about this collection to access the data? </b> <br>  Some of the records may be in Latin or even a Welsh or Scottish dialect depending   on location. The spelling is archaic, and is transcribed as it was written.   There are many spelling inconsistencies and non-standard grammar. Phonetic spelling   is often used. Try using variant spellings if a search yields no results. </p><p> The individual files in this database may not include all dates and records   for each parish/church. Use caution in assuming that any database is a complete   set of records--even for the parishes and time period listed. Due to the legibility   of the original sources, there may be gaps in the records, including partial   sentences, cut-off words, and other omissions. </p><p> Due to the nature of the records and because the records were originally compiled   by a third party, it is difficult to absolutely verify the completeness and   validity of the data. The information in this collection is as correct as it   was when Ancestry.com received it, and has merely been reproduced in an electronic   format. </p><p> <b> What historical background should I know to use this data? </b> <br>  A large number of parish records date from the 16th century, when a series of   mandates required clergy to compile records of baptisms, marriages, and burials   within the parish, and to send an annual copy to the Bishop. Essentially, there   are two sets of records: the parish copy and the copy the clergyman sent to   the Bishop each year, known as Bishops Transcripts. Many records were destroyed,   lost, or simply not kept during the Civil War (1642-60). Of the surviving records,   many have since been transcribed and collected by genealogical societies. The   records are a valuable resource for finding vital information of people of the   time. The content of the records may vary between the two sets. </p><p> Civil registration of births, deaths, and marriage, often called General Registration,   began in July of 1837. It provides a national vital records index that simplifies   searches and includes people who may not have been associated with a church.   The civil records are more readily available than parish records (parish records   after 1837 often aren\'t filmed) and are easier to use. But many births went   unrecorded in the early years of civil registration, so parish records are still   extremely valuable. </p><p>Yorkshire: Addingham - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1612-1812<br>Yorkshire: Aldborough - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1538-1611<br>Yorkshire: Allerton Mauleverer, 1557-1812,  Askham Richard, 1578-1812, Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials)<br>Yorkshire: Almondbury - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1557-1598<br>Yorkshire: Almondbury - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1598-1652<br>Yorkshire: Atwick - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1538-1708<br>Yorkshire: Aughton - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1602-1808<br>Yorkshire: Austerfield, 1559-1812, Cowthorpe, 1568-1812, - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials)<br><ul>  <li>The regelter booke of the chappelrie of Aulterfeilde, 1559-1812</li>  <li>Registers of Cowthorpe, 1568-1812   <li>Including briefs collected at Colthorpe (1738-1747)</li></ul>Yorkshire: Bentham - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1666-1812<br>Yorkshire: Bingley - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials): 1577-1686<br>Yorkshire: Birstall - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1558-1635<br>Yorkshire: Birstall - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1635-1687<br>Yorkshire: Blacktoft - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1700-1812<br><ul>  <li>Extract from Transcript of the Blacktoft Parish Register for 1639 (at Pork).</li></ul>Yorkshire: Bolton by Bowland - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials): 1558-1812<br>Yorkshire: Bradfield - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials): 1559-1722<br>Yorkshire: Braithwell - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1559-1774<br><ul>  <li>Braithwell Parish Register</li>  <li>Baptisms: 1559-1772</li>  <li>Marriages: 1559-1760</li>  <li>Burials: 1559-1774</li></ul>Yorkshire: Braithwell - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1754-1837<br><ul>  <li>Baptisms: 1767-1837</li>  <li>Burials: 1767-1837</li>  <li>Marriages: 1754-1837</li></ul>Yorkshire: Brandesburton - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1558-1837<br>Yorkshire: Brantingham - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1653-1812<br>Yorkshire: Brodsworth - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1538-1813<br>Yorkshire: Bubwith - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1600-1601, 1623-1767<br>Yorkshire: Burghwallis - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1596-1812<br>Yorkshire: Burnsall - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials), 1813-1900<br>Yorkshire: Burnsall - St. Mary\'s Chapel Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials): 1567-1812<br>Yorkshire: Burton Fleming - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages, Burials), 1538-1812<br>Yorkshire: Calverley - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials): 1574-1649<br><ul>  <li>Testamentary Burials: 1404, 1488, 1403, 1466, 1475, 1588, 1616, 1628, 1625,     1500, 1524, 1548, 1563</li>  <li>Churchwardens of Calverley</li>  <li>Baptisms, 1574-1644</li>  <li>Marriages, 1596-1649</li>  <li>Burials, 1596-1644</li>  <li>Calverley Burials & Marriages at Bradford</li></ul><br>Yorkshire: Calverley & Pudsey - Parish Registers (Christenings, Marriages & Burials): 1681-1720<br><ul>  <li>Notes from wills proved At York</li>  <li>Calverley wills</li>  <li>Calverley Soke.
