Hi Janette

I've got scans back from the entry for BT 382/3040 (apparently if you're in one file, you're not in the other)

If you send me a Private Message with your email address, I'll forward it on to you

There might be an Entrance certificate records as an Excise Officer and/or Customs House Officer

Am just about to take off so don't have a chance to check the TNA Discovery catalogue...

No, It's the Stepney Union which is a near neighbour (about a mile away)

If you google familysearch historical maps, search for Shadwell and select Civil Registration District you can get an idea for yourself

Another tip for finding a registration district is to Google place name UKBMD ie Shadwell UKBMD

Will go with that on the postem, if anyone comes across it and wonders if I have mistranscribed it then they will have the option of purchasing the pdf, should they want to, and see what they make of it.

Its the best I can do :-)

Boo

Given you've posted the pdf on here, couldn't you provide a link to this thread on the postem?

Hi Janette

Booked up for 4th Feb.

Access requirements mean that I don't see the record but the staff take a photocopy presumably in case there's anyone in there still alive.

Phone camera's pretty good so should be able to send you a decent electronic copy.

Till then...

Hi Janette

I'll let you buy me a pint next time I'm passing by Australia...

Hopefully I'll be able to get there next week (TNA, not Australia)

I need an excuse to get down there to renew my card and see what's changed since lockdown so I'll have a look for you.

I imagine all of the names in the OP were picked up by an Include Variants search so if you think of the transcribers' job as providing a finding aid to the original record then they've achieved the objective.
