Hi Michelle, Could you tell me where the parish register for baptisms for Wheatley Doncaster c1910 are kept. I saw a fiche at Doncaster Record Office but they couldn't do photocopies so wonder if they are kept anywhere else.Pauline

Marianne Re Pimlico 'PIMLICO, a parochial district, formerly a chapelry, in the parish of St. George Hanover Square, borough and city of Westminster, county Middlesex, 3 miles W. by S. of St. Paul's. It was constituted a separate ecclesiastical district by an order in council in July, 1830. It is difficult to pin down exactly where each of the church records for the parish were deposited but from what I can gather they would be at either of two places (maybe both) Westminster City Archives, 10 St Ann's Street, London SW1P 2DE or London Metropolitan Archives, 40 Northampton Road London EC1R OHB Cheers Michelle

Thanks Michelle That's really helpful Nikki

Suzanne Hi Nothing in the book for those two Churches, the only ones showing were St James and St Michael. From what I can see - All Saints , Princes Park Toxteth 1885-1972 St Clements Toxteth 1842-1967 Church records are held by Liverpool Records Office, William Brown Street, Liverpool L3 8EW And they hold them only on Microfilm. Sorry Cheers Michelle
