Hello

This list of people is constructed from a bibliography of selected documented sources from which the names and events of people residing in Stepney (and environs) has been extracted and compiled in alphabetical order.

It covers a broad period and included are things such as burials, marriages, wills, deaths, criminal convictions, union memberships as well as things one would expect to find in a commercial directory.

Some examples:
GREEN MR BAKER OF MILE END RD.SENT BUNS TO WORKHSE 1886
RICHARD JOHN LABOURER HAD LEGS BROKEN AT LONDON DOCKS 1805
SEAWARD JOHN  SHIPBUILDER:DIED 72Y AT 20 BRECKNOCK CRESC 1858
SUTTON WILLIAM CLAY PIPE MKR:RATCLIFF HIGHWAY 1836

The bibliography from which the info was taken is available on the site.

It is an odd collection, but hope someone finds this useful  :)

Regards
Biker
