  • Or if one of you was baptised or prepared for confirmation in the parish;
  • Or if one of you has ever lived in the parish for six months or more;
  • Or if one of you has at any time regularly attended public worship in the parish for six months or more;
  • Or if during your lifetime one of your parents has for six months or more either lived in the parish or regularly attended public worship here;
  • Or if one of your parents or grandparents was married in the parish;
  • Whether or not you are baptised.
