This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.
"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:
- faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
- over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear
They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. In many cases they are the last available, i.e. they won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.

This CD contains: Burials 1653-1853 (Harleian Soc. Vols. 36 & 37), and Marriages 1653-1837 (Harleian Soc. Vol. 35).
The complete set of registers of St Paul's Covent Garden was published in five volumes by the Harleian Society. The Society kindly loaned us their whole collection for digitising but three of the five volumes for this church were in a very fragile state indeed. The paper was so brittle that it would crumble at the lightest touch and we decided that it would be best not to damage on of the only known surviving sets of these valuable books.
Recently Archive CD Books were advised that another complete set was available from a book dealer in the US for £250.00 so they quickly purchased them, hoping that they would be in reasonable condition ... and fortunately they were!
They have now scanned the final three volumes, which contain the burial and marriage transcriptions, and have made them available on CD for genealogists and family historians and it is their intention to offer the books to the Hareain Society as a gift so that they may preserve them for future generations.
