The imposition in 1695 of a new tax on births, marriages and
deaths, in support of England's contribution to the Nine Years'
War, led to the creation of a full register of the population of
London (as of other counties). The surviving records offer an
unequalled level of information on social, family and household
structures. In particular, they enumerate entire households by name
and status, including children, servants and lodgers. This volume
provides an index ro the surviving manuscript assessments for
London's thirteen extramural parishes, and complements David
Glass's index of inhabitants within the walls, published by the
London Record Society in 1966.
