Immediate source of acquisition

The main body of records was deposited by the Rector in 1975.

Ecclesiastical parish records deposited at County Record Office Cambridge were listed according to a scheme of numbered classes, not all of which are present for every parish. Additional records have been added to each class as they have been deposited, with the result that some series are broken and it may be necessary to look through the entire class to identify a full series.

Administrative / biographical background

Conington is an ancient parish, in the Archdeaconry and Diocese of Ely.

The living was a rectory, and was united with Knapwell in 1903. In 1934, it was united instead with Fen Drayton. The church is at present held with Fen Drayton, Lolworth and Swavesey (Diocesan Directory 1999).

In 1836, the parish was incorporated (for poor law and related purposes) into the Linton Poor Law Union. The civil (non-ecclesiastical) affairs of the parish have been separately governed since 1894.
