I don't have time to investigate further at the moment, but I found reference to St Warboys in Chster here:

I don't know if it is of any use or not.  :-\

1841 / 1851  Nathan was living at Back Brook St, in the Parish of St Oswalds.

Yes thank you I have full information on this whole family.  I was just curious as to what this Warboys is or was......

Hi,

the Grimes family lived in Back Brook St in the parish of St Oswald. St Oswald Parish Church occupied the south transept of Chester Cathedral. The Abbey which became Chester Cathedral was dedicated to St Werburgh. I would assume that Warboys was a corruption of Werburgh and was maybe a local reference to the parish of St Oswald.

Interesting idea Ray ... it was noted as St Warboys in the attestation paper I provided a link to. :-\
