Monken Hadley

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 Monken Hadley, also known as plain Hadley, which includes the districts of Hadley Highstone. This area was in the county of Middlesex but is now in the London Borough of Barnet. Apart from the vital records of the various religious denominations, examples of subjects covered in this booklet are court records (including those for licensed victuallers), fire insurance records (essential for large houses and businesses from the late 17th century) and what is to be found out about the Hadley branch of the Foundling Hospital. Details include where records can be found, whether they are original hard-copy records, transcriptions in books, or on the internet. This 52-page A5 illustrated booklet is part of our ongoing series of Parish Guides.
