These were transcribed in the 1980s into three volumes by Carol Little and John Wrake, and scanned copies of these are available below.

The originals of the Maresfield Parish Registers are held in the East Sussex Records Office (The Hive, just outside Brighton).

Maresfield Parish Register – Index to Volume 1
Maresfield Parish Register – Volume 2

Each volume is in two parts : the transcription of the Folios, and an index to that volume. Note that the cross-references in the index volumes are to the original Folio Numbers, not the PDF page numbers. Folio Numbers are shown in the transcripts in brackets, e.g. (163.)
