Final Concords of the County of Lincoln

Edited by C.W. Foster, M.A., F.S.A. Canon of Lincoln and Vicar of Timberland

In 1896 the reverend W.O. Massingberg, rector of South Ormsby, edited a volume of Abstracts of Final Concords relating to the county of Lincoln, and covering the period from 5 Richard I (A,D. 1193) to 28 Henry III (A.D. 1244).This volume is a continuation of that volume to the end of Henry III’s reign (A.D. 1272) with the addition of appendixes containing some earlier concords from various sources. The index includes references to places mentioned in Volume 1. Most of the concords are cast in a common mould and it has been found possible to omit, without loss, a good deal of the common form. In some cases unusual particulars are recorded and a full translation is given. The property that was dealt with in final concords was land, or some right or interest of a transferable nature connected with land. Final concords help to identify places mentioned in other records and furnish information about parishes, vills, hamlets and manors which have become depopulated, or of which few traces remain.

Adapted from the Preface and Introduction to the volume.
