<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [APG Public List] Great Site for
London 1690-1800</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV> There's a great resource for
eighteenth century London (1690-1800) here: <<A
href="http://www.londonlives.org/">http://www.londonlives.org/</A>>. I
learned about it from ResearchBuzz.<BR> I haven't done
a thorough investigation, but it seems there are at least a few records that
are earlier than 1690 and later than 1800, but according to the site that is
the period the bulk of these records cover.<BR> In any
case, if you have ancestors who lived in London - or who might have - during
this period, or even if you are just interested in the history of London, this
is a great place to spend some time. The "Featured Life" when I first visited
was "Mary Harvey, fl. 1727-1733 A Noted Virago".
:-)<BR> The information is supposed to be drawn from
240,000 manuscripts, across eight archives and fifteen datasets, and there are
said to be 3.35 million names listed on the site. Which is _NOT_ to suggest
this site covers everyone who lived in London during this
period.<BR> For anyone with an interest in history,
this site is as appealing as fresh catnip to a bored
cat.<BR>
