Synopsis
This book presents a series of abstracts of inquisitiones post mortem, feudal inquest documents from the reigns of Edward I through Richard II, from the county of Lancaster, England. These documents were used to determine the heirs to property and to secure feudal dues, and provide a wealth of genealogical, social, and economic information. The author has collected abstracts from original and secondary sources, creating an essential resource for academics, genealogists, and anyone interested in medieval landholding. These inquests offer detailed snapshots of medieval Lancashire society, from the holdings of the greatest magnates to the smallest freeholders, shedding light on inheritance, marriage, and property disputes. The author's work provides a valuable tool for researchers, offering a glimpse into the lives and possessions of individuals and families across late medieval England.
