Stan that was amazingly fast! Thank you. I didn't think to look at the Durham Record Office site for that information - I will in future. I'm interested in both sets but especially a possible 1824 entry so I'm off hunting.Thanks again See http://nd.durham.gov.uk/recordoffice/dro.nsf/vwebplaces The 'Place Names Index' can help you to determine which Church of England parish a County Durham place/settlement was situated in, at any given date.
