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.Andrew's, Holborn Interior. The church escaped the Great Fire of 1666 but was rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren, incorporating the 15th century tower. James CARNEY, Susannah GARBETT, the children of James HANCOCK and Ann KENNEDY, the first three children of Thomas HEWSON and Elizabeth ORAM, Christian George OCHSE, Ann Lydia (daughter of James POULTNEY), William WATSON and the first three daughters of William WHILEY and Deborah STORY were all baptised in this church. Daniel HOCKLY and Elizabeth MOORE were married in St.Andrew’s and baptised their children here. William ULYATE and Sarah GOLDEN were married here and baptised all their children in the church, including the settler Henry ULYATE. Joseph William GOODES and Ann SMITH were married here, as were John GOODES and Hannah ONG, Samuel RUDMAN and Ann TRINGHAM, Edward SEARLE and Mary GARNET, Matthew SLATER and Elizabeth TWELVES (parents of Thomas SLATER), Robert STANTON and Lettice PARKER (parents of William STANTON), and Robert WAY and Susanna CROASDALE.
