INTRODUCTION TO THE HISTORY OF THE PARISH
We have included short histories of the two parishes, St. Alban's in Barrow and St. Gregory's in Sileby. A longer version of the history of St. Alban's can be read on the page entitled Rev. Aloysius Emery.
We have not been able to find a huge amount of information about the church in Sileby. We have used the archives of the Diocese of Nottingham and of the Rosminians. We have searched the records in the Leicestershire Records Office at Wigston and the Local Studies section in Loughborough Library. We would be very pleased to hear from anyone who can add to what we have found.
