Thank you to all the folks who responded to my question as to what
registration district Mornington Crescent is in As Keith observed, it is
most probably in the St. Pancras registration district - which was really
the focus of my inquiry.

Things are slightly complicated by the fact that it was also pointed out to
me that there is Mornington Crescent near Hounslow, just north of Heathrow.
Since the family in question came originally from the Hillingdon/West
Drayton area I'm now wondering if it might be THAT Mornington Crescent after
all. Either way, the cousin who was born there, Robert William GARDNER, is
not yet in BMD but at least I now know where to kep looking.

Thanks again for the help, folks.

Happy hunting!

Depends on the year but the only Mornington Cres in a recent A - Z map is in
NW1.

I suspect that it would be in the Pancras (St. Pancras) registration area.

Pancras
Created 1st July 1837. Abolished 1st January 1903 (renamed St. Pancras). In
Middlesex until 1889.
Sub-districts : Camden Town; Gray's Inn Lane; Kentish Town; Regent's Park;
Somers Town; Tottenham Court
GRO volumes : I (1837-51); 1b (1852-1902).
St. Pancras.
Registers now in Camden district.
