I see a reason given in page 1 of these Extracts for changing ------- Vide Name Sheet
the parish name to Resolis; but doubt if this would hold good
in a Suit of Law for I believe neither the parish name nor the Boundaries
of a parish can be changed without an Act of Parliament.
Suppose the parish Church was removed to another district
or estate, it would not be legal and would not hold good
in Law to call the parish name after the name of the new
estate or district to which the parish church would be ------- removed
Bring this before the Clergyman and some of the principal
Heritors and ascertain which name they will Sanction to be written on the Plans
See name List sent herewith.
