Yes, there are also some missing from the St Georges Hanover Sq reg district, perhaps still to do.

I expect these will arrive at some point, I have more than enough to be getting on with.

Amazingly though, its the ones I was really really  waiting for are missing, the names are common and too expensive to buy certs on the off-chance I'll get lucky. Nevemind, it has solved a few mysteries over missing widows who, unknown to me remarried very late in life! And found me a bigamist  ;D

I see from Ancestry's what's new that
1) There are extra burials (many more)
2) There are extra baptisms (many more)
3) There are marriages
4)  There is a database called London, England, Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1538-1812
This contains the unindexed records especially from these I have taken back my wife's Mewes family in Laleham a couple of generations

Annoyingly one of the post 1837 Mewes marriages was there but banns only, I'm too mean to order the cert and want to know wife's father's name - it hopefully will be on one day

The records of St George Hanover Square are at Westminster Archives . I wonder if that means they won't be included in these LMA parishes?

Unless the LMA has copies of the Westminster registers they won't be included  :(

All credit to Ancestry! People do like to complain about them, but they don't charge extra for new additions to their website, quite a contrast to FindMyPast. I know they will probably adjust their subscription rates in the future, and have already introduced different levels of subscription, but at the moment it does feel like getting a nice present from them!

I have spent a very long time searching with some success my London "LOT". Some of the Westminster parishes seem to have been done. I think some of the Fulham, Hammersmith ,Chelsea and kensington parishes are missing as I cannot find all of mine.
Isnt it lovely not to have to think of a journey to the LMA and to be able to take your time in looking. My husband  and I have both been looking and at times call to wach other what we have found. Ive had no trouble in viewing the records and they have printed well.
We grumble about Ancestry but these records are amazing.
I dont expect to find as much on the extracted records but with time more and more will be added.
I suppose I must away to more mundane things.

Thanks Dawn,

Didn't think of that ! Never mind, plenty to be getting on with and I'm not complaining... a trip to Westminster may be on the cards then when I've gathered up what I'm missing.

They won't - the current lot are from LMA and the Guildhall Library

I have a Buckinghamshire ancestor whose brother was quoted as previously of St George's Hanover Square.

I have never really looked, maybe one day

I have been having fun with these

I found marriage of my grandparents at Cricklewood (I had onlt the record in FreeBMD before and had not ordered the cert)
No idea why they married there - except maybe she was visibly expecting and the marriage was away from anyone who knew her.

The child was born in the area - my late Uncle.

Also my gt grandparents at St Mary's Lambeth in 1881

Found may more than I expected and sorted out the mystery of my  great grandfather's second marriage
