In 1935, was Edmonton a district in the county of London, Middlesex or Essex?

Edmonton has always been in Middlesex. Middlesex has now been eaten up by Greater London, but I am sure the postal address would have been Edmonton, Middlesex in 1930s. It was a registration district too: Edmonton Created 1st July 1837. Mainly in Middlesex, but includes parts of Essex and Hertfordshire. Sub-districts : Cheshunt; East Tottenham; Edmonton; Enfield; Hampstead; Hornsey; Tottenham; Waltham Abbey; West Tottenham; Wood Green. GRO volumes : III (1837-51); 3a (1852-1930). Edmonton, Enfield, Hampstead (1837-48), Hornsey, Southgate, Tottenham, Wood Green. Registers now divided between Haringey, Enfield, Broxbourne and Epping Forest districts. nell

Edmonton was in Middlesex until 1965 when it became part of Greater London, along with the rest of Middlesex. Therefore it would definitely be under Middlesex in 1935. Richard
