Towns which had Roman Catholic parishes are marked with a cross. If you are looking for a specific town, you must know the district it was in. You can get this information from a gazetteer.. | Towns which had Roman Catholic parishes are marked with a cross. If you are looking for a specific town, you must know the district it was in.

Tip: When you open these maps, standard magnification is generally not readable and the normal increase in magnification with the browser makes them difficult to use. Once you find the one you want, right click on the image and download it to your computer. Then use your image viewing program to open it and set the magnification level at whatever best suits your needs. | Tip: When you open these maps, standard magnification is generally not readable and the normal increase in magnification with the browser makes them difficult to use.
