Cheshire / Parish map for Cheadle or Stockport
« on: Tuesday 11 November 25 22:25 GMT (UK)  »
Does anyone have a parish map for Cheadle or Stockport in the early nineteenth century, or know where I can see one without a subscription? I don't live in the UK so visiting Kew or the Cheshire Records Office isn't an option. 

I am tracing an ancestor who married in St Marys, Cheadle in 1809. Bride and groom were listed as being "of this parish" and I'm trying to determine the parish boundaries.

Thank you for your help.

There is also this advertisement in 1787 that may be your Abraham

"TAKEN UP
A small GREYHOUND female female dog
Whoever will own the same by its Marks, and pay the necessary Expenses, may have it again, by applying to Abraham Collier, at the Wheat Sheaf, Red Bank, Manchester. If not owned in a Fortnight's Time, it will be sold to defray the same."
Mancester Mercury, Tuesday,  June 5, 1787

Great stuff! A lost (female) dog! It helps locate Abraham in Manchester in 1787.

Cheers

Great information, thanks. It all helps build a stronger picture of the ancestor I'm chasing.

Kay99,

Thank you for the information. I've seen Charles and Mary in the 1841 census, but have yet to find a record of Robert's birth. I'll keep looking.

Cheers

James
