Hi,

If children were being baptised in Totley Derbyshire, does anyone know which church would they attend.

Thanks KR

Hi KR

I couldnt see a mention of a church at Totley, I think the closest one is at Dore, which is about a mile from Totley.

It depends when you are looking at, All Saints Church opened in 1924 in Totley. Otherwise probably Dore as Ricky says or maybe Dronfield?

Hi

I have come across Totley baptisms in the Dronfield parish registers especially before 1844 when the chapelry of Dore was created.

Thanks for the replies. Woolspinster & Tuppie.
I forgot to mention a date, but I am looking from 1813- 1860.

Can I just recap, The chapelry of Dore was created in 1844, and before that people would use Dronfield Parish.

Do you know the name of the Parish Church of Dronfield ?

Many thanks
KR

That is correct. The guide to Parish records at the Derbyshire Record Office is available as a download on their website.

scroll to the bottom of the page and a number of guides are available.

Dronfield Parish Church is dedicated to St John the Baptists.
