Edited by Edwin Welch and James Collett-White

  • Author
Edwin Welch has created an invaluable list of the licenses which were obtained from the Bedford Archdeaconry or Quarter Sessions for places for nonconformist religious worship

Edwin Welch has created an invaluable list of the licenses which were obtained from the Bedford Archdeaconry or Quarter Sessions for places for nonconformist religious worship. Arranged alphabetically by place, the list names the person seeking the license, the building and often its owner or occupier, and the denomination. The book is generously illustrated.

Edwin Welch (1927-1998) was an archivist and worked in various parts of England from 1951 to 1971 and subsequently in Canada. He was an expert and writer on Dissenting history.

James Collett-White is an archivist and has worked at the Isle of Wight Record Office (1970-1974), Bedfordshire Archives and Records Service (1975-2012) and has been Archivist to Sir Samuel Whitbread since 1997. He has contributed to several BHRS volumes and was, for a short time, the Society's general editor. He has published articles to celebrate the hundredth anniversaries of Bedfordshire Archives and Records Service and BHRS and researches, lectures and writes on history in Bedfordshire. He is working with Bob Ricketts and David Newman on another volume for BHRS on the Turner family of Milton Ernest.
