Surrey Poor Law Index

Surrey Poor Law Index and Calendar

Ref: PRTS-SRYPL-CD1

Supplied by Parish Register Transcription Society.

Compiled and prepared for publication by John Holland. This CD contains an Index of over 84,000 entries (including Place Names) and a Calendar of all known Poor Law Records for Non-Metropolitan Surrey.

Where records for those Surrey Parishes which are now part of Metropolitan London, eg Camberwell, Clapham, Lambeth, Newington, Southwark, Streatham and Tooting are known to exist, the Local Studies Library or London Metropolitan Archives should be consulted. Two important classes of Parochial Records have not been included. They are:
1. Accounts, which often have large numbers of Paupers’ names.
2. Vestry Minutes, which are almost solely concerned with the administration of Poor Relief.
