[Product Image]My Ancestors were Freemen of the City of London

By Vivienne E. Aldous. 133 pages. ISBN 1-85951-400-6.

The records of freemen of the city of London, which survive in the Corporation of London Records Offfice in a more or less continuous sequence from 1681 to 1940, can be valuable to the genealogist seeking ancestors in the "square mile" of the city of London. It is a common misconception that the city freedom has to be earned by some brave or otherwise extraordinary act, and that freemen were not "ordinary" people. In fact, in the past 300 years, about 300,000 people, most of them ordinary working people, have become freemen of the city of London. This book intends to be a practical guide, for genealogists and other users, to the records relating to freemen of the city of London, and to give some kind of background to the city freedom..
