I think Islington is N1 district. EC is more in the City.
This Wikipedia lists London postal districts.
Looking at the map in that article, N.1 and E.C.1 are next to each other.

London EC covers/covered City of London and areas between the city and Islington such as Clerkenwell and Finsbury so near enough I should say - perhaps she was born near the boundry, or moved across the boundary when small?Judith passed away in October 2018

Hard to say Val. I suppose if you lived right on the border of two postal districts, some streets could be generally thought to be in one when in fact they were in the other. If you see what I mean!
Ooops, Judith beat me to it!Last edited by LangleyValeSue; 06-08-12, 18:44.
