If you want to find out more about your ancestors connected with the Freedom of the City, or simply learn more about your past, email the London Metropolitan Archives at asklma@londonmetarchives.libanswers.com. They may be able to help with historical records held by the Corporation. Our own records of Guild members date from only 1942 and regretfully we are unable to help with any enquiries about people who were granted the Freedom of the City.
