Chapelry of Ronsby 1787

[dave1948]

Hi, I have found a Baptism of John Hutton in 1787 at Moorside.  Other entries on the page refer to Scaling, and another 'from the Parish of Danby'.

The heading of the page states 'A true copy of Births and Funerals in the Chapelery of Ronsby in the year 1787'. 

Can anyone define more about this Chapelry of Ronsby as I can not find anything about it, but is in the area I am researching.

Thanks,  Dave.

I think that the page heading refers to Roxby?

From GenUKI:
"ROXBY, in the parish of Hinderwell, wapentake and liberty of Langbargh; 2 miles W. of Hinderwell, 11 miles ENE. of Guisborough. There is here a small Chapel of Ease to the Parish Church of Hinderwell. Pop. 236."

From Wikipedia:

Roxby (formerly Rousby) is a village and civil parish in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire, England. It is located near Staithes.

Roxby was historically a township in the parish of Hinderwell in the North Riding of Yorkshire. It became a separate civil parish in 1866.

St Nicholas's Parish Church was built in the 17th century on the site of an earlier church.
