Hello,

I wonder if anybody could help me in finding pew rental records for a particular church or maybe point me in the right direction as to where I can search for these?

Thanks in advance

Julie

If they survive - and it's a big if - they will have been deposited at the relevant county record office.

The church records (those of the vicar and those of the churchwardens) may also be available as film from your local LDS (Mormons) family history centre.

You may also find something in the newspapers or in court cases at the National Archives as there was occasionally a dispute over which family owned a pew.
