We only hold our baptism registers in church until they are full or the ink begins to fade, when we transfer them to the archives. We currently have from January 2013 on site. If you are seeking a certificate copy of a baptism we can only issue them from that date (in which case please phone or email us, see Contact info, they cost £18). Prior to this, you will need to contact the archives at The Story. It isn’t always necessary to go in person to Durham if you have the details needed to locate your register entry. You can contact the The Story as follows:
