Hi all Does anyone know how I can find out when John Street in Hackney became Vyner Street? All I can find online is that the name was changed but I don't know when. Thanks Lynne |

I googled and found: "Close to the parish boundary John (from 1871 Vyner) Street" From: British History Online Source: Hackney: Mare Street and London Fields. A History of the County of Middlesex: Volume X, T.F.T. Baker (Editor) (1995). URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=22697 Date: 17/01/2005 © Copyright 2003 University of London & History of Parliament Trust I googled Vyner Hackney change. nell |

Would "Victorian A-Z Street Index" help? It can be found at www.gendocs(.)demon(.)co(.)uk(.). Lots of interesting information. Best of luck - Pat |
