A MAJOR GENEALOGICAL ADVANCE: THE FIRST AUTHORITATIVE AND COMPLETE
BIOGRAPHICAL REGISTER OF PERSONS OCCURRING IN DOMESDAY BOOK.
This is the first of two volumes offering for the first time an
authoritative and complete prosopography of post-Conquest England,
1066-1166. Based on extensive and wide-ranging research, the two
volumes contain over eight thousand entries on persons occurring in
the principal English administrative sources for the post-Conquest
period -- Domesday Book, the Pipe Rolls, and Cartae Baronum.
Continental origin is a major focus of the entries, as well as the
discussion of family and descent of fees which characterise the whole
work; genealogical tables are included. An introduction discusses
Domesday prosopography; an appendix gives the Latin texts of the
Northamptonshire and Lindsey surveys.
Post-Conquest genealogy and manorial history start with Domesday Book:
genealogists will welcome this work.
Dr KATHERINE KEATS-ROHAN was awarded the Prix Brant IV de Koskull 1998
by the Confederation Internationale de Genealogie et d'Heraldique for
her work on Domesday People. She is Director of the Linacre Unit for
Prosopographical Research.
