London lodginghouse keepers and innkeepers hosting dissidents from Kent
(1656) Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland, divided the country into military districts under Major-Generals and their deputies, among whose duties was to forward lists of suspected persons to a central office in London. The register of suspected persons for Kent survives as Additional Manuscripts 34013 (A) in the British Library. Whenever a suspect travelled to London, he had to certify to the central office the place of his lodging, this information being recorded in another register (34014: B). A. Rhodes compiled a list of these suspects and their movements from these two books, and from correspondence in a third book (19516: C), and this list was published in Archaeologia Cantiana in 1898. This is the index to the lodginghouse keepers, victuallers, innkeepers &c. whose houses are mentioned in these records.WHITBOURN. Cost: £6.00.  | Sample scan, click to enlarge
