Research

R.W. Seale's map of Middlesex, 1756

This section includes general information intended to be useful to those researching their families in West Middlesex. It includes a parish map which defines the area covered by the Society. A parish information page provides details of the existence and location of the original parish registers of the principal parish churches, as well as any known transcripts. In order to assist those less familiar with the metropolitan area, a gazetteer has been included to identify which of the local family history societies should be consulted for assistance with a given place name. Contact details for the main record offices and libraries are provided, with links to their respective web sites, wherever possible. Further pages give details of indexes to records that are held by the Society or individual members. Finally, several pages of useful links to other web sites are included.
