Could be, but I favour Fisher or Fisk. Believe that Crockford's guide to the clergy may give the name of the incumbent.

To look up Crockfords I'd think the clergyman's surname is essential

Maybe you could do it by the name of the parish ...

On reflection Charlotte I think you are right. If there is a list of clergy by parish then that would be the answer I think.

Think the clergymans name is P Felix, from looking at other instances of his name in the register

Abode is Litt. Windmill St

According to the CCED (Clergy of the Church of England Database http://www.theclergydatabase.org.uk/index.html there was a Peter Felix who was a Stipendiary Curate in Chelsea at about this time. http://www.rootschat.com/links/090y/
