Annal, D. Getting started in family history, 2001: p. 29 (Before civil registration began in 1837, the most important source of official records of births, marriages and deaths is the parish registers compiled by the Church of England. Each parish kept a register in which all the baptisms, marriages and burials that took place in the parish were recorded; sometimes in one register, sometimes separate registers)
McLaughlin, E. Further steps in family history, 1999: p. 10 (Rose's act of 1812 established a printed format for baptism and burial registers, and amended marriage registers slightly)
