    3. Thanks Marion, I have struggled with how I reference numerous ancestors' BMD's from St. Saviour parish in the 17th C. I had read some time ago that Ancestry had their reference information wrong about this parish....but now cannot find my source for that and just don't want to get that wrong. If/when I turn up the information I will post it. Thanks for your input. It does help me somewhat.

I can't help with the first part of your posting, but I might be able to help with your PS. My grandmother used to live in Camberwell and we used to be taken for walks in Ruskin Park, off Denmark Hill. On the western side of Ruskin Park there used to be a church which was known by a host of different names locally vizt. Ruskin Park, St. Saviour; Denmark Hill, St. Saviour; Champion Hill, St. Saviour and Herne Hill, St. Saviour. However, its real name according to the National Index of Parish Registers was Dulwich, St. Saviour in Denmark Park, Champion Hill. It was a parish created from East Dulwich, St. John the Evangelist in 1881 and I think that the church was demolished about 30 years ago. It has nothing to do with Southwark, St. Saviour in Borough High Street which is now the Anglican Southwark Cathedral and dedicated to St. Saviour & St. Mary Overie- and not to be confused either with Southwark, St. George the Martyr, which lies at the other end of Borough High Street. Southwark's churches can be very confusing indeed! Best wishes, Marion Woolgar Bognor Regis, West Sussex SFHG Member No: 3323
