• Historical Records of Births

In a joint initiative Kingston Register Office and Kingston University's Centre for Local History Studies set up a project to create a database of Kingston's 19th Century records incorporating many of the Registration Indexes from 1837 to 1900.

Volunteers from the Centre have transcribed the records and the Council is now able to provide the Indexes on-line which will help provide a reference for anyone searching to find the original details from the many thousands that are held.

If you wish to trace your family history, then this free information may help you locate the reference for birth entries in our Registers. You can obtain a copy certificate for a modest fee by post or by calling in person at our office during our opening hours. It is our aim to deal with your application within 2 working days.

Disclaimer

All the volunteers involved have a vested interest in the locality and the Project, and we are confident that the greatest degree of accuracy has been achieved. However, original hand written documents can be difficult to interpret and so we are unable to guarantee total accuracy.

Birth indexes for the Kingston area 1837 to 1882

These indexes contain information about births that occurred in the Kingston upon Thames area between 1837 and 1882. Please remember that county and district boundaries have changed throughout the years.

The indexes are divided into individual registers. It is important to quote the register number on any application for a certificate. Surnames are listed alphabetically together with the forename and register page number.
