Researching local history can be absorbing but often key documents, such as Manorial and Estate papers and parish registers, are full of archaic or Latin words and phrases which need translation.Joy Bristow first compiled this Glossary from a collection of ancient words she drew up while studying for the Advanced Certificate in Local History at the University of Nottingham. Since then, she has added many more words and some new topics, making her book an extremely popular and valuable reference guide.This Third Edition includes:Over 3,000 unfamiliar words and termsSaints Days, Festivals and moveable Feast DaysDates of Sittings of the Supreme CourtLists of obsolete weights and measuresLatin words and phrasesEnglish currency back to the Roman period and a Decimal Currency ConverterComparative costs of living and values of the pound since 1300Regnal years of English monarchs 1066-1952Roman Numerals
