How to use this guide
London Generations is a guide to our major family history sources and currently includes the following types of records: Anglican parish registers of baptisms, marriages and burials for around 800 parishes within the former counties of London and Middlesex; Bishops transcripts of parish registers; Anglican parish Poor Law registers; non-conformist baptism and marriage registers; land tax assessments; admission and creed registers for workhouses run by Boards of Guardians; London County Council School admission and discharge registers and electoral registers for the counties of London and Middlesex.
Many of the registers you can see here have been digitised and are also available on the Ancestry.co.uk website, where individual names can be searched in most cases.
These lists provide details of the holdings of each of the various registers we hold, and the reference number for the material if you are visiting LMA.
