The Registers of St Olave, Hart St, London 1563-1700
Medium: CD
Publisher:
Archive CD Books
Transcripts of the original registers. Baptisms, burials and marriages 1563-1700.
The transcribers were extremely meticulous in recording the entries . Most events have extra information, such as a deceased person's cause of death and their father's name or, at a baptism, the father's name and occupation is almost always there too.
The book is incredibly well indexed, alphabetically by name and there is also an index of trades, professions and 'miscellaneous matters' such as causes of death (one of which is, bizarrely, 'killed by a fall of a barrel of raisins'!)
This book was kindly loaned to The Archive CD Books Project by The Harleian Society.
Price:
£15.11

The Registers of St Thomas the Apostle, London 1558-1754
Medium: CD
Publisher:
Archive CD Books
Transcripts of the original registers. Baptisms and burials 1558-1754, marriages 1558-1672.
As with the registers of St Mary Aldermary, the incumbent of the church in 1733 conducted what is, in effect, a partial census of his parishioners, listing the name and occupation of the head of each household along with their religion and the number of people in his family (the names of his family are NOT recorded). Even empty houses are noted and between 'Robert Maiyo, barber, to church, family five' and John Breadcutt, fruiterer, to church, family six' we see 'There are in this place ten Houses empty, some repair'd, others pull'd down and rebuilt.'
As usual there is an excellent index, making it incredibly easy to find ancestors.
Kindly loaned to The Archive CD Books Project by The Harleian Society.
