What reading level is The Parish Registers of England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The registers of Kingsbury, Warwickshire ; Snaith, Yorks ; and Somersal Herbert, Derbyshire, are also known to the present writer to begin in 1 5 37, and this is also said to be the case with regard to the registers of Eling, Hunts ; Fairstead, Essex ; and Shrawley, Worcestershire.
Burn also sets forth 63 entries between 1535 and the end of 1537 which occur in a small folio paper book of St. James, Garlick Hythe, London ; he states that " it is not the original, but a transcript (made probably ...in 1 597) of apparently a genuine Register." This analysis reduces the forty registers of the 1833 return alleged to be prior to 1538 to eighteen, and this list ought possibly to be reduced by one or two.^ There is, alas, no doubt whatever that there has been shocking carelessness with regard to the safe custody of parish registers since the 1831 return was compiled. There were at that time 772 registers beginning in 1538 : there are now, we believe, 656 (see Appendix H.). Allowing for mistakes in the exact figures of both these summaries, it appears toler- ably clear that about a hundred of our earliest registers have disappeared in the course of some eighty years.
