The Baptist Chapel at Saxlingham Thorpe was founded in 1793, a single register was kept of births to members' families but was surrendered to the National Archives as required by the act of 1837. This register is filmed by TNA and a copy held in the Norfolk Record Office collection on Microfilm MF1155 from which this transcript was prepared. The register must have been very well preserved as the quality of image is excellent and by and large of a good and clear hand. The Event Reference numbers indicate that this register was probably written up in retrospect - indeed much of it is by the same clerk. It is also clear that whole families were entered en masse at the same date - possibly on becoming members of this congregation (?).
