Allhallows Barking By The Tower (a.k.a. Allhallows by the Tower) was damaged by the Great Fire of 1666, and rebuilt shortly thereafter. It was destroyed again in 1940, but rebuilt 1948-1957. St Dunstan in the East was united with Allhallows Barking in 1960. Parish records are held by the incumbent Vicar at the Allhallows: baptisms from 1558; marriages from 1564; and burials from 1558 (Allhallows Porch Room, Bywood Street EC3R 5BJ) The records of this parish are apparently not entered in the IGI:
