About this title

Synopsis

Thesaurus Ecclesiasticus, originally compiled by John Ecton and improved in this 1788 edition by John Lloyd, presents a detailed account of the valuation of all church livings in England and Wales. This comprehensive 'Liber Valorum' offers invaluable insights into the financial structure of the Church of England during the late 18th century, detailing the charge in the King's Book and the respective patrons of each living.

A crucial resource for historians, genealogists, and researchers of ecclesiastical history, this edition provides a snapshot of the religious landscape of the time. Discover the economic realities underlying parish life and the distribution of wealth within the Church, offering a window into the patronage system and the administration of ecclesiastical properties.
