  • Thegenealogist​ Announces the Release of Islington Lloyd George
    TheGenealogist announces the release of Islington Lloyd George Domesday Survey records. These ​ cover land owners and occupiers in 1910-1915 with over 70,000 individuals recorded, joining the previously released data books and their associated maps for other parts of London. This new release is the latest stage of TheGenealogist’s vast ongoing project to digitise over 94,500 Field Books, each having hundreds of pages, and linking them to large scale IR121 annotated OS maps which are now viewable in TheGenealogist’s powerful Map Explorer tool. The records have been sourced from The National Archives and were compiled by the Valuation Office in a period that stretched from 1910-1915 in response to the Lloyd George government passing the People’s Budget 1909/1910. This new release covers records made of property ownership and occupation in Barnsbury, Canonbury, Charterhouse, Clerkenwell, Finsbury, Glasshouse Yard, Highbury East, Highbury West, Lower Holloway, Myddelton, Old Street, Pentonville, Saint Mary, Saint Peter, Saint Sepulchre, Thornhill, Upper Holloway, Upper Holloway East and Upper Holloway West. Collins’ Music Hall identified by TheGenealogist’s map explorer showing the plot on Lloyd George Domesday map Family historians can use these records to: ● Find ancestors who owned or occupied property in the Islington area of London ● See the outlines of their houses on large scale maps from the time ● Fade between historic and modern maps to see how the environment has changed ● Check details of properties in the neighbourhood, by clicking the red pins ● Locate an address from your research down to a specific house on the map ● Search by name, parish and street to uncover ancestors’ property in 1910-1915 Complementing the maps on TheGenealogist’s Map Explorer are the accompanying Field Books which provide detailed information relative to the valuation of each property, including the valuation assessment number, map reference, owner, occupier, situation, description and extent.
