These records were given to Derbyshire County Council in 1940 and 1941 and transferred to Derbyshire Record Office in 1962.

The Burdett family was formerly of Bramcote in Warwickshire and first became involved with Foremark through the marriage of Sir Thomas Burdett of Bramcote with Jane Fraunces of Foremark in 1602. Jane was daughter and heiress of William Fraunces of Foremark and niece and heiress (through her mother) of John Fraunces of Ticknall. Sir Thomas and Jane Burdett's descendents succeeded therefore to both the Fraunces of Foremark and Fraunces of Ticknall estates. Thomas was created 1st baronet of Bramcote and the family continued to hold property and serve as local officers in Warwickshire.
