GB 0074 P93/JN1 1853-1955 Collection 1.58 linear metres Parish of St John, Limehouse Fields , Church of England

Saint John's was constructed in 1853. The church was bombed in 1940 and services held for a time in Saint Luke, Burdett Road (P93/LUK). In 1948 a small temporary church was built on the site of Saint John's, dedicated to Saint Matthew and Saint John, to serve the parishes of Saint John's and Saint Matthew, Salmon Lane (P93/MTW2). The name was changed in 1951 to Saint John and Saint Matthew. It is advisable to consult the records of the two parishes in conjunction for the post-1945 period. In 1956 the united parish was abolished and was divided between Saint Dunstan with All Saints (P93/DUN) and Saint Anne's (P93/ANN).

Records deposited by the Rector of St Dunstan's, Stetney, in the London County Record Office, 22 November 1955.
