'"London
City is a County in itself and is divided into Wards whose boundaries do
not coincide with those of the parishes in the City. In 1889 the Administrative
County of London was formed from the City of London, and parts of Middlesex,
Kent and Surrey and was divided into boroughs. In 1963 this County was replaced
by Greater London which also took in the rest of Middlesex and parts of
Essex and Herts as well as some county boroughs. New London boroughs were
then formed." [T.V.H. FitzHugh, The Dictionary of Genealogy, 1994.]
There is a considerable overlap in the coverage of London and in particular Middlesex. The practice adopted in the LDS Family History Library and GENUKI regarding parish-level information, provides only for parishes belonging to the City of London, leaving parishes from elsewhere in the Greater London area to the Middlesex, Kent, Surrey pages as appropriate.' GENUKI However, Ancestry has grouped the records together under the titles “London Births and Baptisms 1813 – 1906”, “London Marriages and Banns 1754 – 1921” and “London Deaths and Burials 1813 – 1980”, and these form the basis of the London Parish Registers Page.
