CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
The church of Saint Luke the Evangelist was constructed in 1876-77 and a parish was assigned in 1877. The church was bombed in 1940, and the congregation moved to a temporary chapel and subsequently to Saint Simon's, Saltram Crescent (P87/SIM). Baptisms and marriages from the parish of Saint Luke's continued however to be recorded in Saint Luke's registers. A new church was built on the site of the former Saint Luke's in the late 1950's and opened under the same name.
In 1952 the parishes of Saint Luke, Saint Simon and Saint Jude (P87/JUD) were united and the congregation continued to use Saint Simon's; which in September 1959 was redesignated as the parish church of Saint Luke the Evangelist with Saint Simon and Saint Jude.
