Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 0 Send Message	Can any help with the parish names of places in Co. Durham? To me Stanhope is Stanhope, never knew the name of the parish? but I do know that the council area was large taking in lots of small villages. The C.of E. Churches, didn't take much notice as a child, a Church was a Church and not C. of E, R.C. Methodist ect., ect., Audrey Kruizinga-Church p.s. yes, my maiden name is Church. but I 'm looking for Parkers.

If you lookup Stanhope or any other Parish it will give you details, and often a Transcript of the Parish Registers. Good luck Jim
