The present volume is an attempt to write the early history of the family from records of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries which have come down to us it is composed on the principle of printing original documents in full, and in the tongue, Latin, norman-french, or English, in which they were written. All dates have been reduced to the New Style, with the year commenc ing on January I, and place names have been generally modernized.

In addition to the Rolls and Charters at the Public Record Office and the British Museum, which have been searched, con siderable use has been made of the family Muniments preserved at Hunstanton Hall. They are kept in a small vaulted chamber, originally the guard-room of the gate-house, built in the reign of Henry VII. It contains a large number Of early Rolls and Charters, many Of which documents were not noticed in the meagre description Of this collection, given in the Third Report Of the Historical Manuscripts Commission (pp. 271 by the late Mr. Alfred Horwood, who was only able to devote two days to the examination thereof.
