Conn families of London

The Conn families of London

London has sat at the junction of four counties since their origins in the 10th century. On the north bank of the River Thames is Middlesex to the west and Essex to the east. On the south bank are Surrey to the west and Kent to the east. In 1965 the county of London was formed from the 14 inner London boroughs and the 19 outer London boroughs, although the old eclesiastical boundaries of the County system were retained by the Church. The Bishop of London, for example has jurisdiction only over the Middlesex area of London, which has five episcopal areas:-

A-Edmonton (Barnet, Enfield, Harringay and Camden)
B-Stepney (Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Islington)
C-Westminster (Westminster and City of London)
D-Kensington (Kensington, Hammersmith and Hounslow)
E-Willesden (Harrow, Hillingdon, Brent and Ealing)

 

Throughout the centuries London has been the main destination for immigrants, whether they are from continental Europe or from within Britain. This makes it difficult to find the place of origin of the Conn families of London. The records in this document have been taken from the IGI or from the various censuses and have been grouped according to the Episcopal area and then parish. Any resulting family trees must be viewed with great care and will be updated as and when new information becomes available. The Conn families are mainly congregated in three areas, Stepney, Westminster and City of London, so I have separated those records out and left all the other parishes in this first page.
