In this book we have tried to draw attention to some historical and contemporary local residents who have become 'household names' or who have been particularly influential in one field or another.
We also recall some famous visitors to the borough, such as members of royalty and entertainers.
For many centuries, the proximity of Barking and Dagenham to London made the area a convenient place of residence for London merchants, politicians and government officials.
