Abbey Street Sunday School

Introduction

At the Family History Weekend, Dudley Ferdinando lent me a most interesting book about the History of the Abbey Street Sunday Schools in Bethnal Green. The primary name that both he and I are interested in, is that of Joseph Young (senior) Ferdinando who was superintendent and a teacher at the school and appears on pages 18 21 28 31 32. However, a number of other local names appear in this book and these are listed below together with the page numbers that the name appears on. You can click on the link to go to the page in question. Please note that the pages are larger than normal and so will take a while to download - this is to maintain the quality of the text itself. Dudley has also provided a copy to the East of London Family History Society for their library.

I have been extremely lucky to have been in correspondence with one of the Publishers (J S Forsaith) descendants and I hope that I will be able to add some more to this area in the future. For the moment here are some brief details.

How to Search and Use this Area

How to search?: The names are entered into the index below by surname. Where that person appears on a page the page is highlighted and linked through to the scan of that page. Click on the link(s) to go the pages where that person is mentioned. Pages will appear as a pair of pages in a new window. Where a letter on the index is not underlined (providing a link) no surnames commence with that letter. Finally the surnames are entered "as they appear" in the book and not in true "dictionary" fashion.
