  <dc:title>Records of Coverdale and Ebenezer Congregational Church and predecessors</dc:title>
  <dc:description>The collection consists of church books, minutes, members' baptism, marriage and burial registers, member lists, accounts, histories and printed material.
It includes archives of predecessor chapels across Mile End, Shadwell, Stepney, and Whitechapel.

The church registers and member lists or rolls are of value for tracing individuals. The lists give the names of members, age, residence, date of admission to the congregation and remarks including where individuals moved to join another church.

A highlight is are case notes of Ebenezer Chapel's Association for Visiting and Relieving the Sick Poor. The volume details visits and payments given between 1841 and 1844. These notes are indexed by name. Page 99 refers to visits made to Mr Selby, 115 New Gravel Lane, Shadwell aged 70, a 'man of colour' (reference W/CAE/B/3/1).
