It is sad that this disposal of such documents still continues. They are an invaluable source not only for Genealogical purposes, but also local history.
Most of these documents are drafts used for the preperation of the final indenture or in some cases a will. They range in date from about the middle to end 1800's, though some refer to people in the 1700's and concern property/ land and people in the Ramsgate area of Kent..
The execption being those for Margate, Kent, most are the final indentures etc, which contain abstactions/wills where relevant to the property/land.
All these documents, including those for Bromley by Bow will be donated to the relevant Record Offices.
