Title: Can't find Saxby on Humber on map-COMPLETED thank you
Post by: Myfi! on Tuesday 09 September 08 09:00 BST (UK)

I have three different maps of Lincolnshire and I can't find Saxby on Humber listed on any of them.

Am assuming it would be along the Humber somewhere, but I just don't seem able to spot it.

 I tried Genuki but without any luck also tried googling.

Please, could sks put me out of my misery and tell me what parishes it is near.

are you discounting this place - its not 'on Humber', but not that far ...

Hi Mifi

Could it be Saxby All Saints,  ??? as that is only a few miles from the Humber

Hi Newf

Thanks for the map link. very useful

On the IGI list of parishes there is Saxby (by Lincoln) then underneath Saxby on Humber....think the one you found could possibly the first one.  :-\

Thanks Ricky

That's the one I'm hoping it is, as it's not listed on the IGI.... but need to be sure

Saxby All Saints is definitely the one you are after. It's just down the road from me!
