Information in individual records is tagged by a reference, shown in green, on the right hand side of the page. This is a short reference to the source of the information. One day it is planned to make these references as active links, but in the meantime this section provides an explanation of the quoted sources.
Many of the references quoted are generic, such as PR for Parish Register, rather than be specific whether this is an IGI reference, or printed volume extract, or actual search from the registers held at record offices.

HMS 2059 | The Bostock Tree - Part 4A is entirely based upon this manuscript, whose origin is interesting. The following is taken directly from BBMF.17 (see above). HMS 2059 are documents from an old book of pedigrees obtained in May 1576 by Laurence Bostock (1520), the antiquary, from Phillip Oldfield, attorney of Grey’s Inn, London which had been found in a student’s room in Oxford. The pedigrees, which seem to have been compiled in the latter months of 1498, were made for the ‘howse and Family of Bostok in the Countie palentyne of Chester’. Laurence then made a ‘true copy’ on 14 June 1580 before delivering it into the keeping of Robert Glover, then Somerset Herald of Arms, who probably referred to it in compiling his Visitation of Cheshire that year. | |
