Records of the Inner London Juvenile Courts, 1910-1997. These court registers are the only surviving records of the juvenile courts to have been transferred to the Greater London Record Office (now London Metropolitan Archives). For a short period after 1909 two sets of registers were kept by each court, Part 1s and Part 2s. This mirrors the practice of the adult courts. Part 1s were cases arising mainly from arrests and charges by the police; Part 2s were normally cases brought by means of summonses. From the early 1920s most juvenile courts began to keep one series only containing both types of cases.

The information contained in registers includes: date of hearing, name of informant/complainant (often the police), name and age of the defendant, nature of the offence, the adjudication by the magistrate, and the latter's name.

These registers are not indexed. No other supporting papers have survived.

Recorded are the number of case and certificate, the date the case was registered, name of the deceased and who the administration was awarded to. ISW/1/58 and ISW/1/59 also include the full name and address of the person to whom the administration was awarded. ii) ISW/2/1-ISW/2/20 (1910-1958) is an alphabetical index to ISW/1. Recorded are the date the case was registered, the name of the deceased, the number of case and certificate, the name of the ship on which the deceased served and the date of death. To use the index, find the seaman alphabetically (within the appropriate date range), take the case number and the year in which it was registered from the Index, and look it up in the appropriate register. iii) ISW/3/1-ISW/3/8 Registers of certificates issued for Deceased officers and civilians (7 Feb 1923-24 Mar 1958). Recorded are the number of case and certificate, the date the case was registered, the name of the deceased, who the administration was awarded to, the date the certificate was issued and to whom. ISW/3/6, ISW/3/7 and ISW/3/8 also include the full name and address of the person to whom the administration was awarded. iv) ISW/4/1-ISW/4/14 (1900-1958) is an alphabetical index to ISW/3.

Recorded are the name of the Deceased, Port Division and Official Number, Branch of Service, Rating, Ship or Unit, Date of Birth, Place of Birth, Date of Death, Cause of Death, Place of Death and Decorations (if any). On the death of a seaman or officer a file would have been opened to hold various documents and correspondence dealt with at the time. For Navy cases the files were forwarded at the conclusion of the case to Hayes and it is sometimes possible to obtain the original file by requesting it from Hayes. To do so it is necessary to first look up the name of the deseased in the Alphabetical Index Book of the year of death and obtain the DNR/WILLS File No, if a seaman, or the registered file no if an officer. The application for the file should be addressed to CS(R)2(Navy), Bourne Avenue, Hayes providing details of the case number and the deceased's service particulars. The procedures followed by the Navy are aligned to the Seamen and Mariners Property Act 1865.

Issues of the Invalids Magazine Album. This fascinating set of 'scrap albums' are the survivors of a set that was seemingly created over a period of 10 years or more from the beginning of the 1900's to the start of the First World War. It is difficult to do these albums justice in describing them, as they are a treasure trove of charm and innocence. They not only contain articles handwritten by the contributors, but occasional newspaper cuttings and photographs of domestic scenes, landscapes, foreign holidays, and watercolour paintings of flowers, landscapes and 'designs'.

The earliest volumes contain simple stories in melodramatic style, and exhortations by the editors to send in contributions on time. As the contributors grow up we can see the paintings improve, the stories and articles become more considered and the photographs become art rather than snapshots. The later volumes contain articles about the war which had just been declared, photographs of recruitment and a list of some dozen members of the I.M.A. who were then 'in uniform'. As an editorial note put it "...the most terrible war of all times has swooped down down upon us...".
