Harefield

Description

This booklet contains a list of the main records of interest to the genealogical researcher for the area based on the ancient parish of Harefield. This area was in the county of Middlesex but is now in the London Borough of Hillingdon. Apart from the vital records of the various religious denominations, examples of subjects covered in this booklet are Harefield Hospital, which started as a grand house and became the No 1 Australian Auxiliary Hospital during the First World War and is now a renowned heart hospital, and records relating to Harefield Manor, which date from the turn of the 14th century. Details include where these records can be found, whether they are original hard-copy records, transcriptions in books, or on the internet. This 40-page A5 illustrated booklet is part of our ongoing series of Parish Guides.
