''The History of the Parish of St. Michaels-On-Wyre, in the County of Lancaster'' is a comprehensive account of the development and evolution of the St. Michaels-On-Wyre parish in Lancashire, England. Written by Henry Fishwick, a noted historian and antiquarian of the late 19th century, the book covers a wide range of topics, including the early history of the parish, its religious and social institutions, the agricultural and industrial activities of the region, and the lives and customs of its inhabitants.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which delves into a specific aspect of the parish’s history. The first chapter provides an overview of the parish’s geography, topography, and early settlement patterns. Subsequent chapters explore the various religious institutions that have served the parish over the centuries, including the parish church, the local chapels, and the religious orders that have established themselves in the region.Other chapters focus on the agricultural and industrial activities of the parish, including the cultivation of crops, the raising of livestock, and the production of goods such as textiles and pottery. The book also examines the social and cultural life of the parish, including its festivals, customs, and traditions.Throughout the book, Fishwick draws on a wide range of historical sources, including parish records, court documents, and personal accounts, to provide a rich and detailed picture of life in St. Michaels-On-Wyre over the centuries. The result is a fascinating and informative account of a parish that has played an important role in the history of Lancashire and England as a whole.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
