The public records originate mainly from the Parish Records, the Census Records and the Local Trade Directories.
The Parish Records - now incomplete - are held at the Records Office in Taunton. We will be showing records of births, marriages and deaths for some historic periods in due course.
The full set of Census Records from 1841 to 1901 and the Bathford Trade Directories from the period 1854 to 1940 have been transcribed and can be viewed or downloaded by clicking on the links.
