[edit] Usage TipsPrestbury was one of the largest parishes in all of Cheshire. Because of its significant size, this parish drew many into its population. When searching for especially marriages in the county, St Peters' parish ought to always be among the first to be searched. Due to its size, and number of townships, it was divided ecclesiastically into numerous chapelries. Here is a list of pre-1851 chapelries lying within and sourrounding the town-proper of Prestbury, all whose chapel registers must be searched in order to conduct a thorough search: Adlington - 1757 Bollington - 1834 Bosley - 1728 Capesthorne - 1722 Chelford - 1674 Henbury with Pexhall - 1845 Lyme-Handley - 1568 Macclesfield St Michael - 1572 - Macclesfield Christ Church - 1775 - Macclesfield St Paul - 1844 - Macclesfield St Peter - 1847 - Hurdsfield - 1839 - Kettleshulme - 1864 - Macclesfield Forest - 1675 - Pott-Shrigley - 1630 - Rainow - 1765 - Sutton - 1834 - Wildboar-Clough - see Macclesfield Forest Marton - 1563 Poynton - 1723 Prestbury St Peter - 1560 North Rode - 1846 Saltersford - 1770 Siddington - 1718 Wincle - 1803 Woodford - 1842
