Derbyshire apprentices in London


Jean Durbin sent this fascinating list to DERBYSGEN. Apprentices are from Derbyshire and working in London. Apprentices from the Wirksworth area have been underlined. Thanks Jean.

    From: Jean Durbin [jeand#multiline.com.au] Subject: [DBY] Derbyshire folk as London apprentices Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 11:49:41 -0700 To: [DERBYSGEN-L@rootsweb.com] Dear listers I have been browsing through our State Library records and have come across Derbyshire folk who were apprenticed to masters in London. Most are early, some go up to the early 1800s, so hope it will help someone. Fields are: Name of apprentice, father, father's occupation, residence, master, date. More to follow, best wishes Jean
