No Val, you replied correctly as my query initially was stated.However, the CCEd database (beginning as early as 1642 thru 1660) has "camouflaged", eliminated, or never entered any rectors during those years that had such as Baptist, Fifth Monarchist, or other Separatist 'leanings', as well as any Puritan rectors, whether of Separatist conventicle groups, or those trying to work within the church to make changes that were opposed to any 'popish' effects. So my initial inquiry should have been more clear in that I was searching for any parish record book histories etc., or local archived lists of any/ 'all' rectors who 'made a living' at that Fressingfield parish church in the years 1642 - 1660. Take care and thanks very much for taking the time to reply.
