1881 Strays Title

The information that follows was converted to electronic form from the Public Records Office by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

This index will be of interest to genealogists and those interested in the social history of Chrishall. It shows to where those born in the village had moved and the occupations they were following. Even in 1881 many local residents had moved to London and some of their vocations, such as fireman, policeman and railwayman, would not have been possible in rural Chrishall.

However, apart from one individual serving in the Royal Navy, no residents appear to have moved ‘up north’ although one Cranwell family was living in Nottingham.

Researchers should always check data from original source for accuracy.

Chrishall as place of birth has been highlighted in bold type for ease of reference.

Where individuals are resident with other families (eg young ladies in service), the whole family has generally been included in the entry as possibly being relevant to researchers.

Where individuals are resident in institutions or boarding houses, only a representative sample of other residents has been included.

This index is in alphabetical order by surname of each Chrishall born subject but divided into the five regions in which Chrishall born subjects were living:

Southwestern region

Midlands region

East Anglian region (excl Essex)

Northern Borders & Miscellany region

Greater London region (Middlesex)
