Description

Register of the Abstracts of estates of Popish recusants

Note
This register was compiled in the office of the Solicitor and Clerk of Discoveries from the Abstracts submitted by Clerks of the Peace. These are to be found in F.E.C.1, with the Returns below, under POPISH RECUSANTS. It is arranged in county, and occasionally town, order and alphabetical order of persons registering their estates, and may be used as an Index to the folio or page numbers in the originals. A key to the relevant documents is in the front of the register. A copy of this appears as Appendix 2 to the Commissioners' Report of February 1719/20 in the Parchment Collection of the House of Lords Record Office. P. 219 of this volume may be compared with F.E.C.1/P.124/2, and T.1/253/17 (ii) which bears page references to the volume itself.
