Minutes : Stratford-upon-Avon Borough vestry
Description
Vestry minutes, October 1617-April 1909. This appears to have been the vestry in which all the parish officers, both for Old Stratford and the borough were originally elected, although the minutes themselves are almost exclusively concerned with churchwardens' business, whose accounts from 1617 to 1771 are also included Two churchwardens were elected from Old Stratford and two from the Borough, so that this volume, strictly speaking, is not solely a product of the Borough Vestry For a transcript of the early part of this volume (1617-1699), see The Vestry Minute Book of the parish of Stratford-upon-Avon, ed. G. Arbuthnot, 1899
