Baptisms recorded in the Register for 1660 - 1690

The register of baptisms and burials at Horwich Chapel in the 1660-1690 period was badly damaged over time and and only fragments of pages could be salvaged by the Lancashire Record Office. At some time in the 1980s Mr Ron Smith a founder member of the Bolton & District Family History Society and their Project Officer for many years transcribed what could be seen of that damaged register. In 2015 he had to move into residential accomodation and B&DFHS were asked to dispose of his extensive family history library, which included the Horwich Chapel transcripts. LAN-OPC thanks the B&DFHS for providing copies of the transcripts which are published here.
