An update on the forthcoming third edition of the Complete Peerage. Perhaps inevitably, there has been some slippage of the publication timetable, and the first three volumes are currently expected to appear in September. The publisher's original prospectus is available here. I'll add more information here when it becomes available.
Some further additions have been made to the two searchable databases of material on the Anglo-American Legal Tradition website. In the AALT Lists and Indexes database database, 6 new indexes of King's Bench (KB 27) plea rolls by Vance Mead have been added, from the period 1461-1466. Also, the Plea Roll database, which originally covered only the Court of Common Pleas (CP 40), now also contains all 93 of Vance's indexes for KB 27, from the period 1460-1564. The Plea Roll database offers a more powerful search facility than the AALT Lists and Indexes database, because surnames, forenames and place-names can be specified, rather than just keywords.
The following items have been updated in the Corrections and additions to the Complete Peerage section:
Photographs of three files of Herefordshire feet of fines (CP 25/1/83/45-47), covering 1363-1377, have been uploaded to the Anglo-American Legal Tradition website, and links to them have been added from the abstracts on this website.
