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.

Try here:

Doesn't seem to one quite as early as 1809, but by looking at the various maps, it should give you an idea of the area.
(Unfortunately, Cheadle seems to straddle several maps)

Genuki is also useful re parish maps www.genuki.cheadle.org.uk/big/eng/CHS/Cheadle   I typed the link as my comp is having some cliches so I don't think it works sadly - just seach on Genuki Cheadle Cheshire

If you click on the St Mary Church link the church is shown on a map

You might find the attached mapping site of C. of E. parishes of use, although parish boundaries may have altered over the years.  The search icon is at the lower right side of the map
