Guide to The London Borough of Harrow history, family history, and genealogy parish registers, census records, birth records, marriage records, and death records.



History
As with all other London Boroughs created in 1965, Family History researchers need to understand that this is a melding of many historic areas without consideration to history or family research. Researchers should plan on using old Middlesex records, as well as referring to the old Boroughs' towns and villages listed below.

Occupations
Historically Enfield was a community of mechanical and engineering technicians. For many years, the Royal Small Arms factory was located there, as were a number of other specialty engineering and manufacturing firms.

The world's first solid state circuitry color televisions were manufactured by Ferguson at their now closed plant in Enfield. The first mass-produced dishwasher was manufactured in Hotpoint's now closed Enfield plant. The Barclays Bank branch in Enfield was the first place in the world to have an ATM or cash machine.

However these are all gone, and Enfield is primarily a bedroom city for Greater London. The only real occupations now available locally are in the retail and service areas.

In 2007, Enfield Town center completed a major redevelopment project under the name PalaceXchange while retaining the Palace Gardens Shopping Center. An extension was added to the existing retail area with many new shops, and a second multi-storey car park was built along with a new road layout.

A major redevelopment of Edmonton Green including the shopping center, and adjacent municipal housing over a wide area, started in 1999. This is still on-going, and provides new housing, health facilities, a new leisure center, a supermarket, and many other civic features.

Many local activities are located around the A10 road, on the sites of former industrial enterprises, which has a number of large retail outlets and a large multiplex Cineworld cinema.
