St Pancras Workhouse
« on: Saturday 05 April 08 15:54 BST (UK) »

Hi

Does anyone know how I can look online at the original entries for the St Pancras Workhouse, say 1870-1880?

I was lucky enough to have help which enabled me to look at the records of another workhouse in London and it was quite something to see the hand written entries relating to my relatives.

I'm looking for Henry, William and Elizabeth Biggs.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

What data are you looking for? For the period you mentioned, there are admission and discharge registers 1868-1872, creed registers for the whole period, baptisms 1874-1882, births and deaths from 1871.

Records are at the London Metropolitan Archives and are not online so far as I know.
