Woburn Rates Book 1802 - 1828 SURNAME SEARCHThis search will locate any occurrences of surnames within the 'occupier', 'proprietor', or 'comments' fields for either a selected year or for all years. Many surnames are spelled inconsistently in the book, so the search will accept any subset of letters that make up a name - for example if you want to search for 'Henley' or 'Henly' then use 'Henl' as your search string. This would of course also return any occurrences of 'Henlow'. We recommend that once you have found the surname, you then search the corresponding address for all years, in case the surname is spelled differently in other entries - and this will also help to build up a picture of where your family was living in the whole of the 1802 - 1828 period. OCCUPIER SURNAMES LISTED The surnames listed include the following :-
Please note that there was considerable variation in the spellings used for many of the names (e.g. Clark and Clarke for obviously the same person); also the spidery handwriting in places led to inevitable transcription errors. The above list is the set of surnames as transcribed. |
