All new ventures Of a similar class generally commence well and receive liberal support from those interested in the county, but in course of time it frequently happens that old contributors fall off and new ones to replace them are difficult to find. Hence the Editors are often at a loss for sufficient material to put into the magazine. This certainly should not be the case with such a large county as Lincolnshire. There are, we have no doubt, many ms. Records worthy of being transcribed and printed for the use of the genealogist and antiquarian, all of which will go to serve as materials for the future historian of the county. TO possessors Of such records we appeal, in order that these treasures may find a place in our pages and so satisfy the just claims Of our enterprise. Our Notes in the present volume are full of historical interest, and we cordially welcome the receipt Of Others of a similar character. Our grateful thanks are due to Mr. Boyd and others for contributing the extremely useful transcripts Of Lincolnshire Inquisitions and Feet of Fines. Early records of this nature are invaluable to the genealogist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
