English pedigrees, with notes of arms: W-Z, bulk: 17th century
Compiled by Thomas Wilkinson, vicar of Laurence Waltham, Berks; as appears from the following note in the compiler's handwriting in the pedigree of the Wilkinson family, fol. 31: "As Henry Wilkinson, rector of Waddesdon, affirmed March ye. 14th $$α*$$ 1647 to mee Th. Wilkinson, vicar of Lawrance Waltham, Berkes." At fol. 32 allusion is also made to information respecting this family derived from the writer's father; while fol. 83 in the same volume is formed by the cover of a letter addressed, "For my honoured friend Mr. Thomas Wilkinson, att Laurence Walltham."
With an index prefixed.
Occasional additions by Le Neve are here and there interspersed.
Consists in some part of rough collections, probably intended for subsequent transcription. All the pedigrees are entered in the general index to this catalogue.
