NEW! Association Oath Rolls 1696 now available on British Origins
Oaths of allegiance, used to secure the loyalty to the sovereign and to help identify potential opponents, were relatively common in in post-Reformation and revolutionary England. Oath rolls offer a valuable pre-19th century "census substitute" often containing a substantial proportion of adult male names within the areas they covered.
The Association Oath followed the discovery in 1696 of a plot to assassinate William III. A transcription of the Association Oath Rolls for the City of London Livery Companies are now available on British Origins. This dataset contains the names of over 21,500 members of 77 livery companies.

NEW! British & Irish Passenger Lists 1891 on British Origins & Irish Origins
Passenger records for all 1891 sailings from Irish ports to US and Canadian destinations have now been added to British & Irish Passenger Lists 1890 & 1891. These new records include the names of nearly 50,000 passengers. This dataset now contains the names of nearly 200,000 passengers.
In many cases lists are clearly multiple members of the same family present on the list, making these records much more valuable than simply records of individuals.
