Published between 1909 and 1955, this ten-volume collection
contains deeds relating to all of Yorkshire, from the twelfth to
the seventeenth century. The deeds are of local historical
interest, and provide topographical, philological and genealogical
information, as well as insights into daily life. The majority of
the records here are presented as abstracts, while documents in the
vernacular that are of greater interest or importance are printed
in full. Where possible, the documents are dated. Thorough
background information and discussion of the deeds is included, as
are notable physical descriptions, in particular of the seals. Each
volume concludes with an index of people and places. Edited by
William Brown (1854-1924) and published in 1922, Volume 3 contains
436 documents, including some rare charters of Richard I. The
appendices contain genealogies pertaining to specific documents,
transcriptions of some original Latin records, and further
discussion of the deeds.
