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.Pancras Old Church 1815

St.Pancras Old Church 1815

Engraving of St.Pancras Old Church in 1815 with River Fleet in the foreground (since covered over). George ANDERSON and Isabella OLIPHANT were married here, as were Henry BELMOUR and Ann TUFFEE, Alexander BISSET and Alicia SMITH, Francis BLACKBEARD and Elizabeth TOYNBEE, John CRONK and Ann BURREY, Thomas Henry HALSE and Susan SMITH, Daniel O'FLINN and Margaret O'CONNOR, James PAWLE and Jemima STEPHENSON, George PHILLIPS and Ann LADSON, George PIGOT and Elizabeth TOMPKINSON, and Thomas Charles WHITE and Ann Grant DAMANT. Henry Ulyate FINAUGHTY was baptised here in 1815 as the son of William and Lucy FINAUGHTY, although he was almost certainly Lucy’s son by the settler Henry ULYATE. Elizabeth, daughter of John BLAKEMORE, was also baptised in St.Pancras, as were John, son of Tobias and Ann THARRATT,  two children of Thomas and Sophia MILLER of MANDY's Party and Charles WATSON of SEPHTON's Party.
