    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.

  • LONDON the DORCHESTER Two Day Itinerary: Old Favourites When It Comes to History, Culture and Architecture, Few Cities Can Compete with London
    LONDON THE DORCHESTER Two day itinerary: Old Favourites When it comes to history, culture and architecture, few cities can compete with London. To look out across the Thames is to witness first-hand how effortlessly the city accommodates the modern while holding onto its past. Indeed, with an abundance of history to enjoy within its palaces and museums and stunning architecture to see across the city as a whole, exploring London with this one-day itinerary is an irresistible prospect for visitors and residents alike. Day One Start your day in London with a visit to Buckingham Palace, just 20 minutes’ walk from the hotel or 10 minutes by taxi. BUCKINGHAM PALACE T: 0303 123 7300 | London, SW1A 1AA Buckingham Palace is the 775-room official residence of the Royal Family.

  • The Great Fire of London
    The Great Fire of London HEN Samuel Pepys, a near neighbour of the Penn family at Tower Hill, was awakened by his servant Wabout 3 o'clock on the morning of Sunday, 2nd September, 1666, to be told of a great fire that could be seen in the City, he decided, after looking out of the window, that it was too far away and so returned to bed. Later that morning he realised that this was no ordinary fire, and all that day, and the following days, he was torn between his curiosity to see more of the fire and his anxiety as to the possible damage to his goods, his home and to the Navy Office of which he was Secretary. On the Monday he and Sir William Penn sent some of their possessions down river to Deptford. The narrow congested streets, with bottlenecks at the gates and posterns, where everyone was endeavouring to escape with what goods he could save, added to the con­ fusion. On the evening of the second day of the fire Pepys and Sir William Penn dug pits in their gardens in which to place their wine; Pepys, remembering his favourite Parmesan cheese, put that in, as well as some of his office papers. Sir William Penn brought workmen from the Dockyard to blow up houses in order to prevent the fire reaching the church of All Hallows by the Tower. The anxiety of Pepys and Penn, their uncertainties whether or not to remove their goods, their lack of sleep and the difficulty of obtaining food, which Pepys records in his Diary, are typical of the problems of the citizens, among whom were a large number of Quakers.

  • What Happened in the Great Fire of London? the Great Fire of London Is One of the Most Well-Known Disasters in London’S History
    What happened in the Great Fire of London? The Great Fire of London is one of the most well-known disasters in London’s history. It began on 2 September 1666 and lasted just under five days. One-third of London was destroyed and about 100,000 people were made homeless. The fire had a devastating effect on the lives of Londoners from all parts of society. It took about 50 years to rebuild the ruined city. We can still see the evidence of the fire today through archaeological discoveries and the remains of ruined churches. The Museum of London has many objects relating to the Great Fire that help us to answer questions about this terrible event. What caused the Great Fire? The fire started at 1am on Sunday morning on 2 September in Thomas Farriner’s bakery on Pudding Lane. It may have been caused by a spark from his oven falling onto a pile of fuel nearby. The fire spread easily because London was very dry after a long, hot summer. The area around Pudding Lane was full of warehouses containing highly flammable things like timber, rope and oil. A very strong easterly wind blew the fire from house to house in the narrow streets. In 1979 archaeologists excavated the remains of a burnt- out shop on Pudding Lane which was very close to the bakery where the fire started. In the cellar they found the charred remnants of 20 barrels of pitch (tar). Pitch burns very easily and would have helped to spread the fire. Among the burnt objects from the shop, the archaeologists found these melted pieces of pottery which Melted pottery, 1666 show that the temperature of the fire was as high as 1700 degrees Celsius! ©Museum London of 2011 A Frenchman, Robert Hubert, confessed to starting the Great Fire and was hanged.
