Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Calendar of the Tavistock Parish Records
Having examined this interesting collection, the Rev. D. P. Alford, Vicar of Tavistock, brought them under the notice Of his Grace the Duke of Bedford, who desired that a full examination should be made by someone familiar with ancient mss. This examination I had the pleasure of making; and upon reporting that the records were of very great local interest, and largely in such a state of decay as rendered the preservation of a digest desirable, his Grace liberally directed that a full calendar and abstract should be prepared and printed. Hence the present volume.
