There were outlying townships which were also part of the parish of Sheffield and it is unclear whether the population of these townships were included in this total. The chances are that if you have traced your Sheffield family back to the 1700's, any names that are the same in the 1600's will very likely be part of your family too.  See also <a href="http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10076882/cube/TOT_POP" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: 700" target="_blank"> <font color="#006666">Population Growth Chart for Sheffield</font></a></font><font color="#006666" face="Verdana" size="2">.<br />  </font></p> <p align="left" style="margin-left: 20; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"></p> <p align="left" style="margin-left: 20; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"><b><a name="History"> <font color="#006666" face="Verdana" size="2">What is the Ecclesiasticall history of Sheffield? </font></a></b></p> <p align="left" style="margin-left: 20; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"></p> <p align="left" style="margin-left: 20; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"><font color="#663300" face="Verdana" size="2">See '<b><a href="HistoricalFacts.html" style="text-decoration: none" target="main"><font color="#006666">Historical Facts</font></a></b>' for churches and their records since the nineteenth century </font><font color="#663333" face="Verdana" size="2">which will give you the ecclesiastical history of Sheffield. It will show you that prior to 1846 when Sheffield was divided into 25 plus parishes there were very very few churches in the town. The whole town was one huge parish. This then makes the likelihood of your relatives being in the Parish Churches registers more likely.
