    3. Dear Charlotte, Sheffield Parish Church became the Cathedral for the Diocese of Sheffield in 1914. There is also an Artisan View in the parish of Christ Church, Heeley which was created in 1846. Chris Reaney (S.

Hi, I am trying to figure out what church would have been near where the WRIGHT family lived in 1851 & 1861. In 1851 they lived at Sussex Street. On today's streetmap, I find that between Effingham St and Cricket Inn Road. and google shows the Cathedral Church of St Peter and St Paul about half a mile away. Would this have been the nearest church in 1851? By 1861 they were living at Artizan Street. I can't find that in Streetmap, but google gave me some OS coordinates that come out south of Rutland, near today's Dixon St and Cornish St. This still seems to be with half a mile of St Peter and St Paul.? What other churches would have been nearby at that time? The 1851 marriage took place at the Parish Church in the Parish of Sheffield. However, looking at the list of Sheffield Churches on Genuki, I cannot figure out which one would be the parish church at that time. Would it be the Cathedral mentioned above? I have printed out a parish map of Sheffield, but am having difficulty figuring out where the parishes were in relation to the streets in existence then.
