Walsall churches

St. Matthew's Church, Walsall

The registers are still kept at the church, but we have microfilmed copies of the registers (except the first, 1570-1649) up to 1986.

There is no burial nor marriage register for the period 1649-1662.

We also have

printed transcripts, 1570-1649
typed, indexed transcripts of baptisms to 1837
burials to 1852 (except for October 1746-May 1749) on microfilm but not transcribed
marriages 1662-1837
card index of baptisms, 1831-1835 based on the bishop’s transcripts but checked against the parish registers
card index of marriages, 1754-1837 based on the bishop’s transcripts but checked against the parish registers

To view St. Matthew's parish registers at Walsall Archives you will need to book a FILM reader rather than a FICHE reader - please specify when booking.
