Hi don,there is an Historical Society called the 'Islands Peoples Trust' they used to have a website and I used to subscribe to their newsletter.they are very helpful so if your ancestors came from the Isle of Dogs area of London like many people originally from Dorset who moved there for work,or were original Londoners in that area, they may be able to help you.The 1851 &1861 census are on Ancestry and they often have a 14 day free trial if you are unable to join the site.As are many parish records.Shirley ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don" <myhobbies@tampabay.rr.com> To: <dorset@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2010 5:10 AM Subject: [DOR] Not Dorset related >I realize the following question isnt Dorset, but if SKS could reply off > list > > The only information I have regarding a paternal grandparent origins is > her > father and mother were in London, and she was born there. > > Is there a way to access census records for 1851 & 1861 for London? > > Search parish records? > > Is London associated with any particular county? > > Thank you > > Don Chinnery > Sun City Center FL > USA > > > > *************************************** > > When replying to this message, please spare a thought for your fellow list > members, and anyone searching the archives in the future.
