 St Michael vs St Lawrence
replied on: 12/11/2006 7:32:43 PM
I have had a few days off work so I have ploughed through the Derbyshire Directories. These are on the historical directories site.

Kellys Post Office Directory for 1855 says "The church of St Mary"

Harrods 1870 and Wrights 1874 use St Lawrence for the church name.

Kellys directories for 1891, 1895 and 1899 refer to "The church of St Micheal"

Kellys direcory for 1912 refers to "The church of St Michael now called St Lawrence"

A possibility of a Lawrence connection to with someone involved in financing of the rebuild. Just a thought but my research capability is over the net so I am stumped.

regards Phil
