JEFFRIES - St Albans Hertfordshire - parish records - lookup please

[jonm]

If its of interest, I have extracts for Henry Jeffries from contemporary trade directories and poll books.

Moreover, based on a parish map dating to 1818, he was occupying premises on the north side of the High Street. (This was/is in the Abbey parish in the centre of the city).

Hi Jon

Yes I'd be very interested in the information, from trade directories and poll books, I don't have access to them as I'm in Oz. Where did you find the information on the 1818 parish map, that sounds really interesting?

cheers
