Among the various civil jurisdictions exercised by the Ecclesiastical

Courts prior to the Reformation was that of adjudicating in Con- sistorial causes or actions relating to marriage, legitimacy and divorce. The only records of that period now preserved in the

General Register House are the Registers of two Officialates of St.

Andrews for the years 1512-1552 and 1541-1554, excerpts from which were printed by the Abbotsford Club in 1845.

In -1560 the jurisdiction of these Courts was abolished and on the institution of the Commissary Court in 1563-4 these cases were made over to the Commissaries of Edinburgh, who continued judges therein until 1830, when these matters were transferred to the Court of Session.

The Record of these proceedings before 1658 will be found mixed up with those of the ordinary Court, but after that date the processes have been kept in separate bundles, and from 1684 the

Extracted Decreets are contained in a different Register. These

Processes and Decreets form the subject of this Index. The Processes include Actions for Divorce, both on the ground of desertion or adultery, Separation and Aliment, Declarator of

Marriage or Legitimacy, Declarator of Freedom or Putting to

Silence, Adherence, Reduction of Edicts of Executry, Nullity of

Marriage, Reduction and Improbation and Scandal or Damages for Slander. When the decree has been extracted a reference is given to the volume and page where the same will be found. When there " is only a decreet and no process there is stated to be No warrants."
