RN #192 Inns of Court

This notebook contains summary tables/chronology for the JONES surname admitted to the Inns of Court 1544 - 1655.   The figure below demonstrates the content beginning 1544.   Other related surnames were added which appeared in documents surrounding my own JONES family.  This provided another method to make connections between the surname groups.

A single "square" represented one individual.  The file number (folio #) was placed in the square with the date and name of the individual given.  Family connections, if given from the documents, were also included.

RN #190A Patent Rolls

Patent Rolls are documents that give one aspect of English history.  Henry III reigned 56 years beginning 1216 AD.  This notebook contains an index to the first of this series, Vol. I, years 1216 - 1225 AD.  I have used it many times to determine the used of certain surnames in English documents.  The name JONES does not appear.  Wales (the Welsh, Wallis) begins with "march of, 109" and "homage of, done at Worcester, 142".  The numbers are the pages where this information has been recorded.

RN #190 Mortality Dates - Working Sheets

Mortality dates become an outline of time when placed in a chronological order. They identify the death of individuals along a course of time which may be used to help place family members in a context.  This note book contains my research into dates of death for historic figures that are involved in my own JONES tree climbing.   The figure below is the first page of this notebook, beginning 800 AD.  The dates are placed to the right at 10 year intervals.  Know "death" dates of historic figures are shown forming a picture of individuals along this time line.

This notebook also contains maps and figures of Wales during the time frames documented.
