BEING MATERIALS FOR THE HISTORY OF SUFFOLK, Gleaned from various Sources, mainly from MSS., Charters, and Rolls in the British Museum and other Public and Private Depositories, and from the State Papers and the Publications of the Record Commissioners, the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records, and of the Master of the Rolls.

No work of a like character to the above work, and on a similar scale, has ever been attempted for any county. It consists of an index to practically all the material for the history of every town, parish, manor, and hamlet in Suffolk, and individuals connected with it. Ill the majority of cases the substance of the record or document: referred to is given— the object aimed at being twofold: to provide information substantially; and to indicate •where further and fuller information may be obtained. The various spellings of the names of each place as found in early documents are given, and the places mentioned in the Domesday Survey, the Hundred Rolls, and other records duly identified. All heraldic and genealogical matters are fully entered, and every Suffolk family will find practically all the recorded particulars relating thereto. It is estimated that the work contains considerably over 100,000 references, and it includes a bibliography of Suffolk authors. Two hundred and fifty Copies only have been printed.
