St Andrew, Holborn seems to be on Ancestry. I don't know if all dates are covered. Steven --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

I go to http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=1624 If I select 'City of London' in the Borough drop-down menu under 'Browse this collection', St Andrew Holborn isn't listed, either under 'S', 'A' or 'H'. As the parish spans the City boundary into (what is now) Westminster, I tried that borough too, but to no avail. The old metropolitan boroughs of Holborn, St Pancras are not listed so I can't try them. But I did try Islington and "Not in a borough" for good measure. Clearly I'm missing something! Richard
