NOTES AND QUERIES. [lo* s. n. JULY 9, 1904. TO BE PUBLISHED IN THE AUTUMN.


MEMORIALS OF A WARWICKSHIRE

PARISH.

Being Papers mainly descriptive of the Records and Registers of the Parish

of Lapworth.

BY

EGBERT HUDSON.

With a large scale map of the Parish, Plan, and Illustrations ;

Appendices, and Index of Names appearing in the Deeds and

Registers of the Parish between the years 1190 and 1860.

This volume is mainly descriptive of Records relating to Lapworth, which reach back into the twelfth century. A resident of Lapworth for nearly forty years, the author of this book had many qualifications and exceptional facilities for the work he undertook.

While the volume should have a special value to all who [are interested in Warwickshire, it will appeal, perhaps, as strongly to the increasing number of readers who wish to learn at first hand, if it may only be by fragments of authentic history, what rural life in this country was in bygone times.

The book will consist of about 350 pages printed in legible type upon good paper, and will be published by subscription in a limited edition of 250 copies. The price to those who subscribe before publication will be 12s. 6d. net. After the list is closed, the price to the public will be raised to 15s. net.
