The majority of parish registers held at Northamptonshire Record Office are available to purchase on microfiche.
If you are interested in a particular parish, then we can supply on request what is known as a 'Breakdown List' of the registers for that parish and the numbers per register.
How to order your microfiche
- Write to, or email, the Record Office requesting a Breakdown List for the parish or parishes you are interested in or request a quote.
- Complete the order and copyright declaration form below and return this, along with your payment, to the Record Office stating the parish reference number, type and date of each register.
- Once the form and payment has been received, your order will be placed.
- Please be aware that it will take up to eight weeks to process and complete your order, as they have to be sent away to be completed.

Quality
The quality of the microfiche depends upon the quality of the original register. Some of the earlier registers may be difficult to read. Occasionally, pages were missed out during the filming process. Any missing pages can usually be found at the end of the last microfiche in the series.
We are always happy to answer any queries that you may have on our service.
