Probate Records


Editorial history

Created 11/05/13, by CSG


Purpose

The Probate Records page is an index to all probate records contained in the MarineLives-Tools wiki. New probate records can be added by users of the MarineLives-Tools wiki who have registered with the MarineLives project team.

The MarineLives-Tools wiki is a companion wiki to Annotate HCA 13/72. Both wikis are made available free of charge to anyone (whether academic, student, or enthusiast) who takes an interest in the history of the Early Modern world.

The wikis are the creation of the MarineLives project team, an academic/public history group, dedicated to the transcription, annotation and use of English Admiralty Court records, 1650-1669.

The MarineLives team will be adding content to the MarineLives-Tools wiki over the next few weeks.

  4. ↑ See HCA 13/72 f.105v
  5. ↑ John Daniel, a forty year old Notary publique of the city of London, was a deponent in HCA 13/72 f.16v

  8. ↑ Thomas Gregg, a forty-four year old pewterer of the parish of Saint Andrew in holborne, London, was deposed in March 1658 regarding the loss of tin sent in the Isaack from Plymouth.
