A parish is a district I believe, many areas are under it. And yes many churchs will be under a certain parish.

It doesnt mean its the name of the church, just the parish as far as i know, you can get a list of churches on infobel(.)co.uk

I am ignorant of England & religion.....so could someone please help me?? If a marriage happened in the parish of Bishop Wilton (Willa on cert).....does that mean that the name of the church was Bishop Wilton? Or is a parish like a suburb, & their might be lots of churches in the area?? thanks
