There were just over 75 Ancient Parishes in Lancashire. This is equivalent to a parish in other counties. Most ancient parishes were divided into chapelries, which would usually administer baptisms and burials. In some parishes, notably Manchester, all marriages took place at the "mother church" of the parish and not in the individual chapelries. | There were just over 75 Ancient Parishes in Lancashire.
