Ancestry adds Kent, England, Church of England Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, 1538-1914

Sourced from the Kent Archives Office, Maidstone, England comes the Ancestry collection of 1,318,564 baptisms, marriages and burial records. They are transcriptions with no linkage to an image of the original.

You'd be wise to look further.

FamilySearch has England, Kent, Parish Registers, 1538-1911 with 576,558 records. It supposedly has linked images although they were not available when I checked.

Your best bet is Findmypast with 2,781,062 Kent Parish Baptisms, 2,290,608 Marriages and Banns, 2,328,436 Burials and 150,258 events from earlier years recorded in parish registers. Many have images of the original record linked.
