Transcribed and indexed by Cliff Webb and members of WSFHS, 2015. In the introduction Cliff Webb writes:
London's ever growing population crammed into a small area led to a poorer and poorer level of sanitation and health. By the mid-19th century, the situation was clearly intolerable. Amongst various initiatives, it was decided that most churchyards would have to close. ... Even before then, entrepreneurs had bought up large tracts of land outside the central area, and laid them out as cemeteries. One of these was officially named the Southern Metropolitan Cemetery, but always known as Norwood Cemetery.
Norwood is a confusing entity. Firstly, there is a parish called Norwood in the ancient county of
Middlesex, north of the Thames. However, there is another area called Norwood south of the river. Part
of it was originally in the ancient parish of Croydon, part in the ancient parish of Lambeth. ...The cemetery was founded by its own Act of Parliament of 1836 and consecrated for its first burials in 1837. By 2000, there had been 164,000 burials in 42,000 plots, plus 34,000 cremations and several thousand interments in its catacombs. ...we have indexed all the burials before the end of 1865 (some 25,000 of them), the period when ages are not given in the Civil Registration indexes.

A Guide to Surrey Schools and their Records - October 2011
Compiled by Cliff Webb, who writes in the introduction: 'The records of schools can be useful supplements and substitutes to others for the pursuit of genealogical research, and have considerable value for family history purposes in their own right. This is an attempt to list all educational establishments within the area covered by the ancient county of Surrey, excluding the old London County Council (LCC) area (which are covered by my Index to London Schools and their Records published by Society of Genealogists Enterprises, Ltd), and any records of genealogical interest... Schools were required to keep certain records under various school codes. For example the Elementary School Code, 1903 laid down that all schools should have (a) registers of admission, progress and withdrawal (b) attendance registers and (c) a register of summaries'.

General Indexes to Old Ordnance Survey Maps of London (2015)
CD 43 General Indexes to Old Ordnance Survey Maps of London (Godfrey Edition). Research in Victorian London very soon gives rise to the question "where is such-and-such a street?". It may be on a modern map, but quite often is not. The re-publication of early Ordnance Survey 1:2500 maps in the reduced scale Godfrey Edition gives the researcher a chance but, even if the street is on the sheet one has purchased, exactly whereabouts is it among the other 150 to 1000 - or more? So, it became apparent that a fresh index would be of considerable help to the long-term Victorian-London researcher. Such an index needs - a) to include every street named on a Godfrey Edition OS map that might have been a habitation, including those that need a magnifying glass to see them, b) to pinpoint directly, every mention of that name on the map, c) to enable a searcher to be confident when concluding that a particular name is not shown on a map, d) to identify immediately the relevant sheet number or numbers, e) to be freely available for researchers to purchase and to use as and when required without needing to visit a record office, f) to be modestly priced.
The INDEXES were originally published in West Surrey FHS’s Research Aid Series in five separate booklets: RA 43 Key to the Index; RA 44 North-East London; RA 45 North-West London; RA 46 South-East & South-West London and RA 47 Surrey Extension (Complete with Surrey Key and Diagram). These 5 booklets have been reproduced on the CD.
