Churchwarden’s Account Book 1862-1957

Churchwarden’s Accounts Chesterford Magna, 1862  payments and receipts to the Church accounts from 1862-1957, signed by the Churchwardens. Full of interesting information e.g. Mrs Blackwell was paid 1/6p for regularly washing a surplice, and 2/- for two in the 1870s. £55 was given to the Little Chesterford Fire Fund on 5th April 1914. In 1915 Mr Thewlis, Headmaster was paid £5.00 as temporary organist. Presumably the usual organist had gone to war.
