CORONERS' ROLLS 6-10 EDWARD II
(JUST 2/108A AND 108B)

Index Introduction

Copyright Stephen Swailes.

This page contains indexes to coroners' rolls JUST 2/108A and 108B held at the National Archives. The rolls are short and in very poor condition. 108A covers the borough of Northampton for 6-8 Edward II (1312-15) and 108B covers the borough for 9-10 Edward II (1315-16). Little information can be derived from them but they are included here for group value.
