 Cape Town (English church, later Cathedral of St George)
Transcript of the church registers at the English church (later St George's cathedral), Cape Town. Transcribed by Charles Fison.

The Military Chaplain and the Civil chaplain kept separate registers, and it is advisable to search both. The Military Chaplain's register does not appear to have any entries from 1818-1823.

Private Christenings ( often illegitimate) were listed separately but have been incorporated here and indicated with a * in the date field. A * in the BRAC field indicates that the person is mentioned in the book 'British Residents at The Cape'
