Transactions Transcriptions: 'Old Series' Volume 4

All Saints, Stock
Timber bell tower
Transactions transcriptions – Part 2

To increase our online presence, one of the goals of the Essex Society for Archaeology and History is to provide more information on the many thousands of pages of articles which have been produced over its 160 year history.  Online contents lists and indexes do not exist at the present time but other external sites have downloaded text and facsimile copies.  Although digitisation is not prefect it is better than no thing!.  So to plagiarise back our own work – now out of copyright – the following is available.
