The 6th edition of My Ancestors Were... Londoners by Cliff Webb is a trusted guide for family historians navigating the complexities of tracing London ancestry. With London historically home to a significant portion of England and Wales’ population, many researchers inevitably encounter ancestors who lived or worked in the capital.

Inside, you’ll find guidance on using parish and non-parochial registers, census returns, directories, poor law records, wills, occupational sources, and more. It also includes appendices listing London record repositories and parishes, plus maps of boroughs—making it a compact yet comprehensive toolkit for tackling urban genealogy.
