Philippa Tudor | Huguenot Records in Lambeth Palace Library: Cataloguing Complexity
Lambeth Palace Library, London, 2 October 2024, 5.30pm

Registration due by 30 September 2024

Philippa Tudor will be talking about her work as a volunteer at LPL cataloguing the Huguenot records.

The term ‘refugees’ was first used to describe the 50,000 Protestants who fled to England from France in the 16th–18th centuries. The miscellany of related records in Lambeth Palace Library sheds light on the experiences of Huguenots in England, as well as attempts to secure the release of those condemned to the French galleys. All are welcome, but anyone wishing to attend must book an individual ticket or email archives@churchofengland.org no later than Monday, 30 September.

Philippa Tudor, who completed her doctorate in the literature of the early Reformation in England, is a volunteer cataloguer and friend of Lambeth Palace Library, working on a finding aid to its Huguenot-related resources.
