The Pease Surname in the Parish Register of St. Mary's Parish Church, Great Baddow, Essex, England
from the years 1540 to 1632

Dr. Charles Banks1 states that the name Pease occurs eighty-four times between 1540 and 1654, the earliest one recording the death of a daughter of Robert Pease "the Smythe."

Philip Rice2 has published the fifty-six entries from 1540 to 1632, with the assumption here that this is a complete list for those years. That list is below, printed as published, with the addition of decade divisions to aid in examination of the records.

The following source credit appears in the Rice book:
Data compiled by archivist in Great Baddow from the St. Mary Parish Church, Great Baddow, Chelmsford, England, May 1981
The Revd Cannon (sic), J.A.Kingham
