Unitarianism is the belief in the single personality of God, in contrast to the doctrine of the Trinity (three persons in one God). It is the philosophy upon which the modern Unitarian movement was based. Many Presbyterian Churches declined in the 18th century and the Unitarian Church arose out of a controversy about the doctrine of the Trinity. Further information about the history of the Unitarian Church can be found on the
BBC website.
The Record Office holds very few registers for the Unitarian Church. You will find details of our holdings for each Unitarian church on our website.
You will find our holdings on microfilm and to see them you must make an appointment.
Many registers of non-conformist churches have been transcribed and/or indexed. You will find a list of the transcripts/indexes on our website.
