The Records section of the Kent Archaeological Society website presents a substantial and evolving collection of transcriptions, translations, and documentary resources relating to the history of Kent. Compiled over many decades by specialist groups and independent researchers, these materials include parish records, inscriptions, archival texts, and other primary sources that provide direct insight into the county’s past. This long-standing tradition of recording and publishing historical documents reflects the Society’s role as a record society, making original sources more widely accessible for research and study .
We invite individuals, local societies, researchers, and family historians to contribute material to help expand this important resource. Submissions may include transcriptions, translations, indexes, or editions of archival documents such as parish registers, wills, deeds, inscriptions, or other historical records relating to Kent. Contributions that make previously inaccessible or difficult-to-read sources available in clear and structured formats are especially welcome, supporting both academic research and public engagement.
Selected contributions may be included in the Society’s Records section to support research, education, and the preservation of Kent’s documentary heritage. When submitting, please provide details of the source material, its origin, date, and any relevant context, along with information about transcription methods or editorial approach where appropriate. Our editorial team may make minor adjustments for clarity and consistency. By contributing, you help preserve and share the written record of Kent’s past, ensuring these valuable sources remain accessible for future generations.
