"Not born in county" -? - London UK
Posted: Tue Oct 09, 2018 8:02 pm
Hi,
Found a reference to an ancestor:-
"1841: Flask Walk, St John Hampstead, Edmonton, Middlesex & London, England,
Thomas Powell, 43, Labourer, Not born in County 1798."
When it says "Not born in County" does this mean the county of London please, & if so, where did the county extend to in 1841, so that I could search neighbouring counties for Thomas Powell's birth details?
What was in the County of London (Metropolis) at this time, and what counties were outside, surrounding it please?
Thanks.
