Biografie
Founded in 1857 as the St Botolph Bishopsgate Ratepayers' Association; the name changed in 1860-2. The objects of the association were "To correct abuses ... in the local government of the ward ... to watch over the expenditure and proceedings of the same ... to diffuse ward and parochial information ... and to carry out the principles of a mutual improvement society".
The City of London was divided into wards for the purpose of government as early as Norman times. The wards had responsibility to keep the peace, supervise trade and oversee sanitation, and each ward has the right to elect an Alderman and Commoners to sit in the Court of Common Council.
