tribute. The Statute of the Realm — pubHc, private, local and 

 persona!, and the Rolls of Parliament from 6 Edw. I to 

 the reign of Henry VIII, the London Gazette, and the House 

 of Lords and Commons' Journals have yielded much fruit. 

 Of the Old Record Publications full use has been made. 

 All the entries in any way connected with the county of 

 Suffolk, families or individuals in the Domesday Survey, 

 Testa de Nevill, the Hundred Rolls, the Quo Warranto Rolls, 

 the Charter Rolls, the Originalia, the Patent and Close Rolls 

 before the recent issue {i.e., prior to the time of Edw. I), the 

 Inquisitions post mortem, the Proceedings in Chancery, &c., 

 have been translated and the substance extracted. From the 

 Inquisitions alone there are over 4,000 references. 

 The valuable series of lists and indexes issued by the Record 

 Office, in order to make the contents of that office more 

 available, have been examined, and matters and references 

 relating to Suffolk extracted. ... In addition to the above 

 matters all the entries in the Black Book and Red Book of the 

 Exchequer, and in the calendars of the Patent and Close 

 Rolls issued in recent years have been arranged under the 

 several places — the substance of each entry and roll being 

 given. ... In addition to these, the items relating to Suffolk 

 have been extracted from the following : The Calendars of 

 State Papers, Domestic Series, Home Office Papers and 

 Treasury Papers, Acts of the Privy Council, &c., Descriptive 

 Catalogue of Ancient Deeds preserved in the Public Record 

 Office, 4 vols., 1 890-1 90 1 ; Catalogue of the Arundel MSS. in 

 the College of Arms, 1829, by C. G.Young; the Reports of 

 the Historical MSS. Commissioners; Jones's Index to the 

 Originalia and Memoranda of the Exchequer, 2 vols., 1793; 

 and the Index to the Ipswich Wills, 1444 to 1478. The 

 material thus gathered together, with a note of the histories of, 

 guides to, and printed accounts in connection with any parish 

 (which will be found mentioned under the particular place), 

 has been arranged under one alphabet, topographically.
