Collection GB 0074 DRO/016 - HOLY TRINITY, HOUNSLOW: HIGH STREET, HOUNSLOW

2.48 linear metres (75 documents).

From the catalogue, it will be seen that only one register has been deposited for the period before 1836. It is known however that as late as 1924 a second register existed covering the years 1742 to 1836 (see A History of The Priory and Church of the Holy Trinity, Hounslow, by G.E. Bate, 1924). This register contained baptisms, 1742-1836 with many gaps, some burials to 1821, and marriages to 1753. Middlesex Parish Registers - marriages, Volume IV, edited by Phillimore, 1912, refers to a local legend concerning a Hardwick marriage register, 1754-1812, which is said to have been burned by a Clerk of the parish. It seems more probable, in view of the chapelry's uncertain status, that marriages were no longer solemnized in the chapel after the Act for the Better Preventing of Clandestine Marriages, 1753 (26 Geo.II. c.32).

The parish of Holy Trinity, Hounslow, was originally a chapel belonging to a friary at Hounslow. After the Reformation the ownership of the chapel passed to the manor-house but a living was endowed and permission was given for the chapel to be used by those parishioners of Isleworth and Heston who lived in Hounslow, which at that date was divided between those parishes rather than being a separate parish. The chapel itself was situated in Heston parish, and drew staff from both Isleworth and Heston parishes. By the 18th century a charity school was closely connected with the chapel, which was also used for baptisms and marriages of Hounslow residents.

In 1816 the vicar of Heston bought the chapel and had it rebuilt on the same site. The new building was opened in 1829. In 1835 a parish was finally assigned to the chapel, comprising Hounslow and parts of Hounslow Heath. The Bishop of London became the patron of the living.
