Knowing who died and who lived through the early years of the plague is somewhat problematic!. Deaths among the general English population were not recorded in the 14th Century -- the height of the Plague -- and most communities did not begin recording parish registers until around 1538!. Fortunately, Eyam began keeping a parish register in 1630!. Thus historian John Clifford began by examining the register, noting everyone who was alive in 1665, the year the plague came to Eyam!. He searched for evidence of life through the year 1725 -- marriages, baptisms, burials that took place years after the plague had left the village!. Deleting the names of those lost during the plague period, he was able to determine who the survivors were!.
