Names recorded, lives remembered. Every name tells a life.This parish register collection reproduces the church register transcripts of Farleigh in the County of Surrey, gathering 16th century baptisms alongside marriage and burial records that map family ties, occupations and seasonal rhythms across early modern England and beyond. Far from dry lists, the entries become a living ledger - a compact English church records compendium that serves both as a genealogy sourcebook and as engrossing Surrey local history. Direct evidence for family history research appears throughout; social historians and curious readers alike will recognise patterns of naming, migration and kinship that are often invisible elsewhere. Brief, plainly written entries open into larger narratives: births and rites, vows witnessed by neighbours, the occasional note of grief that marks a community’s losses. Taken together, these entries help reconstruct lineages, household composition and the ebb and flow of village life, making the register a practical tool for tracing surnames, landholding and movement across generations.Garraway Rice’s careful compilation preserves material drawn from Surrey parish archives and frames it with a restrained editorial hand, making the registers a British genealogy reference of enduring value. Attention to detail in the transcripts preserves variant spellings and original dating where evident, helping researchers cross-reference entries with other county records. Its significance is both documentary and literary: the book supplies raw primary material for historians and genealogists while also offering the textured cadence of parish life in early modern England. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. A quietly compelling work, appealing to casual readers and classic-literature collectors, and sitting equally well on the family historian’s desk and the collector’s shelf.
