The Catholic Record Society (Registered Charity No. 313529), "the premier Catholic historical society in the United Kingdom", founded in 1904, is a scholarly society devoted to the study of Reformation and post-Reformation Catholicism in England and Wales. Particularly active members in its early years were Joseph Gillow, J. H. Pollen, and Joseph S. Hansom. The society was initially established as a text publication society, with the aim of publishing Catholic historical records. Only later did it become a more general historical society. It has been credited with making much otherwise obscure archival material more readily available. This book contains selections from the diary notebooks of William Mawhood, a woollen-draper of London. The diary entries are from 1764-90. The entire diary is contained in 49 notebooks with over 4,000 pages and approximately half a million words. The diary began as a record of business memoranda, but gradually William added notes of personal and family interest. Reynolds has edited out all business records (sales of cloth, etc.) and left in anything of remote interest to Catholic life in London during the period.
