I am trying to trace my ancestor Charles Coleman who was born in Great Brickhill, Buckinghamshire

Hi Rosie,
Wow thanks for the quick reply, I hit a brick wall with this family about 20 years ago and am now just getting back to them. This information is great and I will look at the website link you sent and see what else I can find out.
Thanks

Bletchley Archaeological and Historical Society transcribed the PRs for the three Brickhills, Great, Little and Bow some years ago but I see on their website http://www.mkheritage.co.uk/bahs/publications.html that they only have copies of Little Brickhill left for sale. They suggest using Bucks FHS services.
