1820 Settler Places in Britain and Éire

In many cases, particularly in cities like London and Bristol, many buildings with settler ties no longer exist. In such cases I have tried to include historical pictures where possible, and where I have not been able to take pictures myself I have added pictures from www.geograph.co.uk, which can be used under a Creative Commons Licence. Where the photographer’s name appears as a clickable link followed by a CC BY-SA 2.0 reference, the original photo can be viewed together with other photographs of the surrounding area.

The pictures are currently arranged by county for England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, with separate sections for the cities of Birmingham, Bristol, Dublin, Edinburgh, Liverpool, London, Manchester and Nottingham. London has been further sub-divided into Boroughs so as not to have too many pictures in one file. The pictures appear as small icons with a brief title. Clicking on them will reveal a larger picture with text explaining the link to one or more settlers and a credit to the photographer. Clicking on the + sign will further enlarge the picture to full screen (ESCape to exit full screen), and the photographs can all be downloaded from the site.

St.Anne, Soho. The tower of 1801 survived the Blitz in WW2 but otherwise the church is a modern rebuild. George BLAKEMORE and Sarah WEST were married here, as were John BROWN and Ann CAVE, Richard GUSH and Margaret EVANS, Benjamin HALL and Frances CRICK, James HOGSFLESH and Margaret CHANDLER, William HOWARD and Elizabeth SMITH, Robert PITT and Lucy RAPLEY, James TEMLETT and Ann WINTER, William VERITY and Elizabeth GARNESS and Peter Matthias WICHMANN and Catherine RICE. Philip John GAUGAIN was baptised in St.Anne's, and his parents, Peter John GAUGAIN and Jane LE COINTE, were married here. Two children of Peter Clarke DANIEL were baptised here, as well as George Augustus KOLBE, Edward and Tyndall (sons of Thomas PULLEN), and Amelia, daughter of John and Jane WYATT.
