London Family History Centre

Because of building refurbishment at South Kensington, the London Family History Centre is temporarily located in the Reading Room of The National Archives.  Both online and microfilm resources have been relocated to Kew where they will remain for some months.  Advanced booking of computers or films is not necessary.  Use this website to identify film numbers present in our inventory. A form to request films is available at Kew. Staff members retrieve films every 15 minutes.  Downloads from websites and digital scans or prints from films are available.
