Hi Michelle
If the marriage certificates says it took place in the parish church it would be St Peters. If you don't have the certificate you should buy it. You should also post the name of the vicar.
Can you say where your 'marriage entry' is from?

Hi Ken,
Thanks for that information and the map; it's really cleared things up for me as regards what constitutes West Derby and what doesn't. The query was from a friend in the US who I'm looking up some English census returns and indexes for as his Ancestry subscription doesn't cover them. He probably wouldn't mind me putting the full details on here but I thought it best not to since I haven't asked him. He was confused by the "Solemnized at the Parish Church, Parish of Liverpool, County of Lancaster" line so I said I'd try to find out what it means (I'm not too used to English records.)
I've now looked up the marriage myself and found it under Liverpool, not West Derby, so that makes more sense considering St Peter's was the Church; I think we'd just mistakenly put this one down as West Derby due to all the later ones being West Derby. Thanks again for the help.
Regards
Michelle
