Appendix III.

Schedule of assize rolls

So varied are the dates and so mixed, in many cases, the contents and order of arrangement of the three sets of Assize Rolls which contain Lancashire Pleas, that a simple Schedule of the Rolls in numerical order gives but a confused idea of all they contain. This synopsis of their contents has therefore been arranged in chronological order by regnal years and under two headings. Schedule A comprises all such Rolls, or parts of Rolls, as contain Assizes, Juries, Attaints and Certifications, with the Essoins, Attorney lists, etc., connected with such Pleas; while to Schedule B are relegated Inquests and Presentments, Gaol Deliveries, Quo Warranto and all other Pleas of the Crown.

These Schedules are preceded by a reference list of the Assize Rolls in numerical order, giving the membranes which contain Lancashire cases and the regnal year under which the contents will be found detailed in Schedule A or B. The Rolls calendared in this volume are marked with an asterisk.

In these Schedules a note has been made of several Sessions of which the records are missing. The dates of these are fixed by Essoins at the previous Session and adjournments, and their number might be increased by a closer examination of the existing records. Taking into consideration the risks to which the Rolls were exposed in the past, it is a matter of surprise that the series should be so complete and the gaps so few and small.

N.B.—There are six Duchy Assize Rolls for Richard II and Henry IV, but these and the series of Lancaster Palatine Assize Rolls (which commence 1 Henry VI) contain only Crown Pleas, Gaol Deliveries, Lists of Manucaptors, Fines and Amercements, and the like. The Civil Actions (largely representing the ancient Assizes), Fines and Recoveries, Deeds of Bargain and Sale, etc., etc., are entered on the magnificent series of Lancaster Palatine Plea Rolls, 767 in number, which commences with Rolls for 2 Henry IV and 7 Henry VI, and is practically complete from 19 Henry VI to 11 Victoria.
