  • Records Relating to the 1939 – 1945 War
    Records Relating to the 1939 – 1945 War This is a list of resources in the three branches of the Record Office which relate exclusively to the 1939-1945 War and which were created because of the War. However, virtually every type of organisation was affected in some way by the War so it could also be worthwhile looking at the minute books and correspondence files of local councils, churches, societies and organisations, and also school logbooks. The list is in three sections: Pages 1-10: references in all the archive collections except for the Suffolk Regiment archive. They are arranged by theme, moving broadly from the beginning of the War to its end. Pages 10-12: printed books in the Local Studies collections. Pages 12-21: references in the Suffolk Regiment archive (held in the Bury St Edmunds branch). These are mainly arranged by Battalion.

  • The Stewardship of the Liberty of the Eight and A
    THE STEWARDSHIP OF THE LIBERTY OF THE EIGHT AND A HALF HUNDREDS By ANGELAGREEN, B.A. The temporal jurisdiction of the Abbot of Bury St. Edmunds extended over almost the whole of West Suffolk, the Eight and a Half Hundreds which comprised this Liberty being those of Thingoe, Thedwastre, Lackford, Risbridge, Blackbourn and Babergh= these last two each counting as a double hundred—and the half hundred of Cosford. Since the dissolution of the Abbey this part of Suffolk has remained a distinct region for purposes of local administration and, with Exning, now forms the modern adminis- trative county of West Suffolk. According to tradition, the Liberty was granted to the Abbey by Edward the Confessor.' A steward was appointed to administer it in much the same way as the sheriff acted for the county, the Liberty as a separate franchise being normally excluded from the sheriff's jurisdiction. As the sheriff administered the county on behalf of the king, so the steward of a liberty administered the area exempted from the sheriff's sphere of duties, but only for so long as he did so satisfactorily. Among the duties of the steward was the return of writs to the sheriff, arrest and custody of prisoners, holding the courts of the Liberty and of each hundred, and general adminis- tration of the area on behalf of the abbot, who himself held the Liberty from the Crown. The steward was not concerned with administration of the abbey estates but with the good government of the whole Liberty and maintenance of law and order.
