Bere
Regis Burials 1639 - 1943

If
you have any further descriptions for the Burials below or details of
other burials in the period, then please let us know by sending the
info to the address here
Please
note that the entries below are based on individuals' personal research
and therefore do not constitute the entire records of Burials in the
parish of Bere Regis. These can be accessed at the County Records Office
in Dorchester, Dorset. One day in the future we will be able to publish all the records, however they need to be digitised first which may take some time! Watch this space!
For 4 years, 1639, 1640, 1700 & 1701, thanks to the hard work of John Pitfield, we have the full Burials list. From 1703 through to 1943, we have piecemeal Burial records from various sources.
