| Administrative / biographical background: |
Certificates of redemption record the tithe rentcharge under the various Tithe Acts. Until 1918 redemption could only be made by payment of a lump sum. The Tithe Act 1918 made provision for the redemption of tithe rentcharge by means of terminable annuity payments, initially for a period up to fifty years, but later extended by the Tithe Act 1925 to sixty years. |
