Protestation Returns 1641
In 1641 a bill was introduced in the House of commons requiring that all Englishmen of eighteen or above must sign the Protestation Oath. This Oath was read out in Parish churches all over the country and parishioners were expected to sign or make their mark in front of the incubent and other officials present. Many Roman Catholics refused. This transcription was done by Carol Hughes from "Cornwall Protestation Returns 1641" a transcript (circa 1914) by Reginald Morshead Glencross, additional material by H L Douch.
