I discovered this site due to the Alan Cumming episode of "Who Do You Think You Are", as his Grandfather was in the police force in Malaysia, so thanks go to the BBC for this one!

MIDDLESEX - GENERAL

A note about Middlesex, London, and surrounding areas: 
I am not a native of England, so I must rely on things like Google to tell me where certain places are in the British Isles. From what I have read, it seems that Middlesex had once been a county in its own right, but appears now to have become part of the Greater London county, along with parts of surrounding counties. For the sake of this site, I will be listing them as separate counties - LONDON, MIDDLESEX, etc.
