For a muster of St Saviour watermen taken in 1629, click here

NOTE:  The muster lists rarely distinguish St Saviour by name; mostly they list names for Southwark or for the hundred of Brixton.  Many of these names will therefore be of non-parishioners.  For details of the musters, see the originals or the published transcripts.  "SHC" is the Surrey History Centre in Woking.
