Churchwardens' Manual

Overview
It is not desirable on the present occasion to trace the variations in the duties of Churchwardens through successive centuries. Each age has, of course, its own special features, and may require different treatment to its predecessor, but there is no doubt whatever as to the fact that ever since the Reformation Churchwardens have been recognised as officers of the Church, with their position and duties distinctly defined both by canon and statute law. Before particularising their duties I must point out what is the law as to their election. Who, then are qualified to be Churchwardens? Aliens, Roman Catholics, Jews, children under ten years of age, and persons who have been convicted of felony are absolutely disqualified.
