Some London Parish Registers for just a few years
What I have is Set 1 of London Compendium from - http://www.rod-neep.co.uk/acatalog/lnd-church.html
Rod has now retired and closed the business
These
are The Harleian Society transcriptions of the registers - not the actual
registers
Now these are separate files for each church and within a church there are
separate files for blocks of years. It is not easy just to check for a name to
see if they are there. If you have found a record indicating a church within
this list - then possibly something may be found but otherwise looking is a long
hard grind. Usually each
file has a name and a local index BUT some haven't.
Pallot
and Boyd's marriage indexes are good for this - for example on Pallot's I
found
Lankshear, Lankshear Marriage Date: 1788 Parish: ST. GEORGE HANOVER SQUARE
Checking the CD this was found as a marriage in 1808 but it was in the Volume for 1788
- 1808 John Lankshear wedding Margaret Pearson
The double surname is because Margaret appears in CD index under Lankshear
and Pearson
Buy why are first names not in Pallot's
Anyhow this is list of churches and years and whether only marriages
All these require manual checking - PDF are not enabled for Adobe search
St Antholin, Budge Row & St John Baptist, Wallbrook-London
St Benedict & St Peter, Paul's Wharf, London
Volume one contains baptisms from 1619-1837. Volume two contains marriages in St
Benedict's from 1619-1730, Volume three has marriages in St Benedict's 1731-1837
and for St Peter 1607-1834.
The reason that there are so many marriages, especially between 1719 and 1754,
is that these churches were very close to The Faculty Offfice where marriage
licences were issued, so there are a huge number of people from all over the
country marrying here.
