English Church Courts by Else Churchill
Often described as the "bawdy courts" or "court of scolds" these records illustrate the moral and religious constraints that governed communities in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. English family historians are familiar with church court records relating to wills and marriage licences but much more information about individuals can be found amongst the records of the church courts. This talk explains what the records contain and how they can be of help to genealogists.
