Most widely held works by Cecil R Humphery-Smith

The Phillimore atlas and index of parish registers by Cecil R Humphery-Smith( )

23 editions published between 1984 and 2010 in English and held by 945 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Parish registers are a vast, important but widely scattered archive. They are essential to the family historian, providing the only written record of the vast majority of our ancestors who left but three brief mentions - a baptism, a marriage and a burial." "This guide to parish registers, now in its third edition, and covering England, Scotland and Wales, is a vital, time-saving tool that has become universally known as 'the genealogist's bible.'" "The Atlas includes the famous county 'parish' maps, which show pre-1832 parochial boundaries, colour-coded probate jurisdictions, starting dates of surviving registers, and churches and chapels, where relevant." "Topographical maps face each 'parish' map, and show the contemporary road system and other local features, to help deduce the likely movement of people beyond the searcher's starting point." "The Index lists the parishes, with grid references to the county maps. It indicates the present whereabouts of original registers and copies, and whether a parish is included in other indexes. It also gives registration districts and census information."--BOOK JACKET

"The Cambridge Armorial is the first work to include all the arms of the University, the colleges and the City; it also contains those of other educational foundations situated in the city but not officially connected with the University, such as schools and theological colleges. It has been compiled over a number of years by members of the Cambridge University Heraldic and Genealogical Society, assisted by other heraldic experts. The illustrations, mainly the work of the late Wilfrid Scott-Giles, Fitzalan Pursuivant of Arms Extraordinary, have in all cases been drawn from the most authoritative sources."--Front inside flap of dust jacket
