During the height of the Industrial Revolution, the erecting of Liverpool's numerous smaller churches called chapelries or chapels of ease and district chapels which lay within the boundaries of the ancient parish of St Peter and Nicholas excelerated in order to serve Liverpool's quickly expanding populations. Liverpool St Nicholas' numerous chapels of ease or chapelries--some of which are of ancient origin, each kept their own registers of baptisms, often some burials and in a few cases where permitted, marriages as well. | During the height of the Industrial Revolution, the erecting of Liverpool's numerous smaller churches called chapelries or chapels of ease and district chapels which lay within the boundaries of the ancient parish of St Peter and Nicholas excelerated in order to serve Liverpool's quickly expanding populations.

Below is a comprehensive list of all the chapelries associated with the ancient parish of St Nicholas and Peter Liverpool as of 1885. By far the vast majority of the original church registers '''('''of which many are now being transcribed and posted [http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/indexp.html online]''')''' are located at the Liverpool Central Archives; a few may be available at the Lancashire Record Office in Preston. Most (but not all) of the original registers were microfilmed by FamilySearch and they are available for ordering and viewing at {{FHL|349498|subject-id|disp=The Family History Library}} and its 4,600 satellite FamilySearch Centers worldwide. Nearly 70 percent of these microfilmed registers have thus far been transcribed and their data is posted online for searching, at both the '''[http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ Lancashire Online Parish Clerk]''' (LanOPC) or, [http://familysearch.org '''FamilySearch'''] websites. | Below is a comprehensive list of all the chapelries associated with the ancient parish of St Nicholas and Peter Liverpool as of 1885.

It is important to note that <u>''all''</u> reference guides and treatises on Lancashire's ancient parishes differ--some much more than others--in that they each contain some omissions in that they do not identify, nor thoroughly list <u>''all''</u> of Liverpool's [ecclesiastical] district chapels and chapelries (chapels of ease) lying within St Peter's ancient parish boundary. This is extremely problematic to when attempting to conduct sound, and thorough genealogical research for this large township, and this must also be stated as hugely problematic throughout the rest of Lancashire. This problem occurs much more frequently than normal because Lancashire's attracted massive manufacturing and industrialization growth, with the resultant population explosions. It is the under-lying cause for most unresolved and often decades-old genealogical research problems in this township and the county in general. | It is important to note that <u>''all''</u> reference guides and treatises on Lancashire's ancient parishes differ--some much more than others--in that they each contain some omissions in that they do not identify, nor thoroughly list <u>''all''</u> of Liverpool's [ecclesiastical] district chapels and chapelries (chapels of ease) lying within St Peter's ancient parish boundary.

To overcome this 'pitfall' it is therefore imperative that researchers use these (Lancashire and when completed--the Cheshire, and West Yorkshire) Wiki "Parish" pages, or if not, at very least you must use <u>several</u> key reference aids and resources simultaneously in order to compile the most comprehensive and thorough list of all chapels of ease and chapelries throughout Liverpool. | To overcome this 'pitfall' it is therefore imperative that researchers use these (Lancashire and when completed--the Cheshire, and West Yorkshire) Wiki "Parish" pages, or if not, at very least you must use <u>several</u> key reference aids and resources simultaneously in order to compile the most comprehensive and thorough list of all chapels of ease and chapelries throughout Liverpool. | ||
