Introduction

The following is a break-down of names found in the parish registers of Maisemore, Gloucestershire, in 1538-1600, available on the web at http://www.glosgen.co.uk/maisereg.htm. I have sorted the names by alphabetical order, first the feminine names, then the masculine names, and then the surnames.

Many of the given names in these documents are recorded in Latin. I have used as the headers for each name the likely vernancular form; these forms are not recorded in the registers, but are based on the vernacular forms found in registers from other parishes in Gloucestershire in the same period. [1] The surnames are listed here in the spelling they are found in the actual register.

Note: I have not normalized the names to conform with modern capitalization standards.
