Duxbury updated [29 May 2014]

These notes were formerly on the Duxbury page. They have been removed once further information was accumulated. The sources employed are those that have been used to provide place pages for every civil parish in the Chorley area. Wikipedia provides useful definitions for "township" (in the British sense) and "parish"--in this case, "ancient parish" or "ecclesiastical parish".

Notes

This place name does not appear as such in a Google Map search. The closest match found to date is "Durbury Woods", near Chorley, England, in southern Lancashire County. In any case, Duxbury is variously described as a "township" and as a "parish" immediately south of Chorley England. The Reverend William Brewster and Miles Standish of Plymouth Colony lived near Duxbury, Massachusetts.
