Excerpt from The Manor and Manorial Records The lord of the manor, however, even at the present day, is a real factor in local life. Parish and district councils, in questions constantly arising touching village greens, recreation grounds, commons and rights of way, find that they have to reckon with him in the exercise of their newly acquired powers, and have to adjust their Claims in accordance with the Old manorial rights enjoyed by him and his predecessors for centuries.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Old Maryland Manors, Vol. 7: With the Records of a Court Leet and a Court Baron A striking contrast between the North and the South is presented by the small landholdings of the former and the great estates of the latter. Tracts of thousands of acres were not at all uncommon in colonial Maryland, and sometimes land-grants included even tens of thousands. These great estates had a strong shaping influence on the life of early Maryland. Separating their owners by wide intervals, they prevented that association of interests and feelings that was strong in the towns of the northern colonies. The man who lived in the center of a tract of ten thousand acres must necessarily have been thrown largely upon his own resources for amusement and for culture. The cooperation which makes schools and libraries of easy attainment in a thickly settled community was absent among such people. Consequently education could be obtained only at great cost and inconvenience. The planter who was determined to have his children well taught had to send them abroad, as was done in the case of Charles Carroll of Carrollton. There were some towns founded in Maryland, it is true, in the earliest days. The vanished city of St. Mary's, the lost Joppa, and others that have disappeared as completely as the "cities of the plain," furnished a stimulus to civilization in some parts of the colony. But in spite of these instances, it is true that most of the life of Maryland in the latter half of the seventeenth and the whole of the eighteenth century, was country life. And it was a country life that presented many analogies to the country life of Englishmen during the same period.

Excerpt from County of Surrey, Abstract of the Court Rolls of the Manorial Records, Vol. 2 It is not my purpose to trace the origin or describe the system of a manor. It was, perhaps, at its peak of importance in the thirteenth century. That allows some centuries during which it has survived, even if the authority Of its Courts has ceased. Customs in England die hard. At Warwick the Court Leet still is held every year and sometimes a presentment is made at it. The new Law of Property Acts have overhauled tenures, descent, and the conveyancing which have come down to us from our previous systems and in particular the tenure by copy of the Court Roll of the Manor is to be brought to an end within a fixed limit of time, ten years from the commencement of the Law of Property Act, 1922. The Manorial documents - which include Court rolls, surveys, maps, terriers, documents and books of every description relating to the boundaries, franchises, wastes, customs or courts of a manor, whether in being on lst January, 1926, or Obsolete, but do not include the deeds or other instruments required for evidencing the title to a manor, - are thus no longer needed. When a closed register or document is laid aside, and is of no immediate use, its purpose, and the interesting material contained in it, is forgotten. It becomes lumber, and under that name is fit only for the fire of destruction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
