CARTOGRAPHY 



Each History will contain Archaeological, Domesday, and Geological maps ; maps show- 

 ing the Orography, and the Parliamentary and Ecclesiastical divisions ; and the map done by 

 Speed in 1610. The Series will contain about four hundred maps in all. 



FAMILY HISTORY AND HERALDRY 



The Histories will contain, in the Topographical Section, manorial pedigrees, and 

 accounts of the noble and gentle families connected with the local history ; and it is proposed 

 to trace, wherever possible, their descendants in the Colonies and the United States of 

 America. The Editors will be glad to receive information which may be of service to them 

 in this branch of the work. The chart family pedigrees and the arms of the families 

 mentioned in the Heralds' Visitations will be issued in a supplemental volume for each county. 



The Rolls of Arms are being completely collated for this work, and all the feudal coats 

 will be given in colours. The arms of the local families will also be represented in connection 

 with the Topographical Section. 



In order to secure the greatest possible accuracy in the descriptions of the Architecture, 

 ecclesiastic, military and domestic, a committee has been formed of the following students of 

 architectural history, who will supervise this department of the work :
