About this Parish

Tudhoe Holy Innocents was created in 1860 from Brancepeth St. Brandon, Ferryhill St. Luke and Merrington St. John the Evangelist.

Parts of this parish became part of these parishes: Tudhoe Grange St. Andrew.

Available Records

The following table provides covering dates for all original registers, microfilm copies and indexes available in the Record Office for Tudhoe Holy Innocents. However, you should bear in mind that we may not have records for the whole period indicated. See the detailed list of records for this parish for more information.

The more recent registers (after the end dates below) are not in the Record Office and all enquiries should be directed to the clergyman responsible for the parish. Find contact details for all parishes in Durham Diocese in the Diocesan Directory of People and Places.
