About  the Home Counties   

When the LCC (London County Council) was formed in 1888 - it took in areas of - Kent and Surrey - a very small part of Essex - and the total administration for Middlesex - (The county of Middlesex ceased to exist in all but name). For example - instances of Depford, Greenwich, Lewisham, Plumstead and Woolwich will appear in both Kent and London depending upon the date of the event.
