Baptisms 1876 - 1900

These baptisms at Cleckheaton Primitive Methodist Chapel are recorded in the West Yorkshire Archives under reference C25/70.

The original handwriting, on the whole, is quite poor. The pages are not numbered and neither are the individual entries. There are several that are out of date order but have been kept in the original sequence. The format for the entries is: Date of baptism, name of child, surname, parents' names, abode, occupation and date of birth. Every effort has been made to accurately transcribe these records and if possible the below details should be checked against the original records.

The spelling of Canary Street seems to have caused some problems!
