BASKERVILLE OF EARDISLEY

Legg inn av Tony Ingham » 22 nov 2007 02:09:06

In February of this year following the thread ' Hounding the
Baskervilles ' I contacted Michael Miller and suggested that the known
history of the Baskerville family was flawed and needed a thorough
overhaul.
Since that time we have worked on the Eardisley line to the exclusion
of other off-shoot branches. Most of my research has been conducted in
the State Library of Victoria (Australia) and the Melbourne University
Library, both being richly endowed with Medieval research material. Two
visits were made to the State Library of South Australia and the Barr
Smith Library, University of Adelaide.
Marianne Percival of the Reference Library Hereford generously copied
various sections of the COLLECTIONS TOWARDS THE HISTORY AND ANTIQUITIES
OF THE COUNTY OF HEREFORD IN CONTINUATION OF DUNCUMB'S HISTORY by
various authors, and the notes from 'The Baskervilles of Herefordshire,
1086-1300' by Bruce Coplestone-Crow, published in the 'Transactions of
Woolhope Field Naturalists' Field Club Vol. XLIII.' (1979). Matthew
Connolly had earlier kindly sent me copies of Coplestone-Crow article
and the notes were a very welcome addition.
Copies of 'Feet of Fines' were obtained from Documents Online; Michael
Miller transcribed the Courthand Latin and translated into English.
There is still one Fine outstanding which requires personal examination
at the P.R.O. and I'd be most grateful if anyone could assist in this
regard.
There is a descendent line of 16 generations attached. In the near
future I'll publish as much as has been found for each generation
including, if applicable, the relevant section from Bruce
Coplestone-Crow's article in a series of submissions to this list.
