Tithe Apportionments Database

Introduction
This is a database of the information contained in the Warwickshire tithe apportionments, produced after the Tithe Commutation Act of 1836. Currently the database covers all parishes with apportionments in the modern diocese of Birmingham and our volunteers are working on transcribing those in the Coventry diocese. You can also search for tithe maps and apportionments by using Warwickshire's Past Unlocked. This will tell you the date of the map and apportionment and the scale of the map. You will also see 'altered' apportionments for parishes: these have not been included in the tithe apportionment database. If you have any questions or comments about the database, please click here to e-mail the record office.		Record Office staff consulting the Berkswell Tithe Map, 1841 (reference CR0569/29)
