Are they the same place ?

Milton, or Middleton-Malzor (Holy Cross)
MILTON, or Middleton-Malzor (Holy Cross), a parish, in the union of Hardingstone, hundred of Wymmersley, S. division of the county of Northampton, 3½ miles (S. by W.) from Northampton; containing 607 inhabitants. This parish, consisting of 1445 acres, is situated on the road from Northampton to Oxford; and the Grand Junction canal, and the London and Birmingham railway, pass in the immediate vicinity: the Blisworth station of the latter is distant one mile. A few men are employed in the shoe-trade, and the women in making lace. The living is a rectory, valued in the king's books at £16. 15. 10.; patron, Thomas Kershaw, Esq.: the tithes were commuted for land in 1780; the glebe altogether comprises 202 acres, valued at £434 a year. The church is a neat structure, repaired in 1838, and has an ancient circular window: there are 19 acres of land for keeping it in repair. Here is a place of worship for Baptists.
