Hertfordshire Settlement Certificates

Description

This 250 page A4 book lists in alphabetical order details of surviving Settlement Certificate records from the late 17th Century to the early 19th Century held at Hertfordshire Archives & Local Studies, Hertford. The text, which covers some 5,000 individuals and family groups, includes not only details of actual certificates but also, and often where they have disappeared, lists of the issue of such certificates by the "home" parish or their lodgement with the "receiving" parish along with original document references.
