    1. [HWE] Batch Numbers: all London churches
    2. Andrea Vogel
    3. Hello, listers -- I hope you'll stick with me while I carry on with the batch numbers thread for just two more posts. The IGI is a valuable resource for us all, and the batch numbers help us access that info more fully, so I think it's worthwhile to post as much info about it as possible. I hoping that fellow listers feel the same. The New Zealand Society of Genealogists has an excellent web site, including three sections which list the batch numbers for all London churches (not just the French churches). It's a good idea to check the records of the (C of E) parish churches which were in the same areas as the French churches. Especially once assimilation began taking place, French Protestants often attended the nearby parish churches. The info is listed alphabetically by London areas, as follows: http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/nzsoghamilton/london1.htm -- London Churches: Battersea to Littleton. http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/nzsoghamilton/london2.htm -- London Churches: London city (includes 4 different batch numbers for Threadneedle Street) http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/nzsoghamilton/london3.htm -- London Churches: Mile End to Whetstone (includes French churches in Spitalfields and Westminster). The home page for the NZ SOG is at: http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/nzsoghamilton/index.htm. The site also includes useful info/links for UK research so I hope you'll have a look at it. For those researching in London, there is additional info such as: http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/nzsoghamilton/londonlink.htm which has London Internet sites & links There are also links to London and Middlesex Parishes and to East of London FHC where photos/descriptions of some of the churches can be obtained. Some of these links lead to surnames lists which you might want to check out, or even submit your own surnames if this is where you are researching. Have fun with this one. A great resource site!
