  Parish of Muncaster, Cumberland

#1    The registers of The Church of S.S. Micheal and All Angels, Muncaster, Cumbria. Transcribed by H.B. Stout, Seascale, December 1978. Whitehaven Record Office
#2    IGI Online
#3    National Burial Index, 2nd Edition

#4     H.B. Stout notes a gap in baptisms 1657 - 1727, Marriages 1655 - 1723, Burials 1657 - 1723. H.O. Spencer in the May 2003 CFHS Journal points out that there is  transcription of "Waberthwaite" parish registers in Barrow (and Whitehaven) record office made by John Pratt in 1924 which appears to be these missing registers. However (in 1812?) Thomas Nicholson wrote "Waberthwaite included Muncaster, where there was also a church. Muncaster is now a separate parish. Corney has lately been included with Waberthwaite.
