Could someone please tell me where the Baptismal records conducted in the Peterborough Cathedral from 1730 to 1770 are located?

Hi,

You might get better results if you post this on the Northamptonshire forum. I don't know where the original registers for the Cathedral are held, but I would start by asking the Northamptonshire County Archives (https://www.westnorthants.gov.uk/northamptonshire-archives-service). Alternatively it might be worth contacting Sadie McMullon, the secretary of the Peterborough and District FHS (https://www.peterborofhs.org.uk/contact-us.php). The FHS has transcribed all the Cathedral registers, but I assume that you have already found the transcriptions and are seeking the original pages of the relevant register.

One online source suggests that they may be at Cambridge University Library

I would not worry about reposting this elsewhere, if you do decide to then just ask a moderator to move it rather than have two posts on the same subject.
