Synopsis
A Collection Of Ancient Records, Relating To The Borough Of Huntingdon, With Observations by Edward Griffith. This volume collects and abstracts documents relating to Huntingdon, illustrating the borough's parliamentary history and the rights of inhabitants versus corporators. Beginning with Domesday and early charters, the editor argues that the resident householders (the commonalty) were Burgesses and voters, not a private corporation, and that burgess elections were conducted at county courts with open participation by freeholders. The collection includes Domesday entries for Huntingdon, various royal charters (John, Edward I–III), tallage records, pleas, court rolls, and hospital charters (St. John’s). Through careful comparison of sources and Latin passages, Griffith aims to show that the general populace bore political rights and that the corporate body did not have exclusive electoral power. The work addresses longstanding questions about municipal rights and parliamentary representation, seeking to harmonize disparate evidence into a coherent view of Huntingdon's constitutional history.
