Sausthorpe is an ancient parish, has registers from 1565 and Bishops Transcripts from 1561 (no doubt with many gaps). Raithby (there are two but I should think that Raithby by Spilsby is the one in question) is also an ancient parish with registers from 1558 and BTs from 1562. Two different parishes. They are very small parishes, but different places. On the Spilsby Registration District map, Raithby by Spilsby and Sausthorpe parishes are shown next to each other. The LFHS publishes two books that help enormously in identifying parishes - the Gazetteer of Historic Lincolnshire and The Registration Districts and Deaneries of Lincolnshire. The latter has a map of each Registration District showing the places in that RD, plus a list of all the Deaneries with their parishes. The Gazetteer is a list of parishes, townships and hamlets with details of which Registration District, Deanery, Poor Law Union, etc. each place is in. The latest edition of the Gazetteer also has maps of the four fens - Holland, East, West and Wildmore Fens showing where all the different parish allotments are. The two books are offered on Genfair and Parish Chest, at a reduced price if you buy both at the same time (sorry for advertising Lou). For a small cost you could have all this information at your fingertips, as I do, just above my desk within reach without having to even stand up! The information about the parish registers and BTs comes from a book that the Archives no longer publishes, by the way, but all the information is on their website.
