Historical notes, extracts from churchwarden's registers, and biographical memoranda
Historical notes, extracts from churchwarden's registers, and biographical memoranda, which relate to the following places:
- The parish of St. Botolph's without Aldgate, London, 1547-1770 (fols. 24, 127, 239). This occupies more than half the volume: see also MS. Top. Lond. d. 2.
- Berkshire in general, especially Windsor (fols. 16, 59, 93)
- Wallingford (fols. 1, 229)
These notes seem to have been formed in about 1819, but the natural order has been confused by the binder.
