The index to the first ten journals, compiled by John Field, was published in 1994 and this second index covers journals 11 to 20 for the period 1991 to 2000. During this period there were a number of significant changes, all of which are detailed in Rutland Record. In June 1991, Rutland Record Society merged with Rutland Local History Society to become Rutland Local History & Record Society, with Prince Yuri Galitzine, the Record Society’s founder- chairman, continuing as the chairman of the renamed Society. In 1997 he became its President. In May 1993 there was another change when the Rutland Field Research Group for Archaeology and History (RFRGAH) under Squadron Leader Fred Adams also merged with the Society to become its Archaeological Group. Outside the Society, there were other changes relevant to the history of Rutland and Rutland historians. In 1997 Rutland regained its unitary status under Rutland County Council District Council, although to many it had always been, and will always be, Rutland no matter what authority governs it. These local authority boundary changes also saw the Leicestershire Record Office become the Record Office for Leicestershire, Leicester & Rutland. This somewhat tedious title is often shortened to ROLLR (roller!), but at least it includes the county name. The editorship of the ten journals covered by this index also saw some changes. Rutland Record Society founder editor Bryan Waites continued until issue 12 when he handed over to Cathy Firmin for issues 13 and 14. From issue 15 the journal editor was Tim Clough. Rutland Record has continued with a wide range of high quality original articles on the history of Rutland. Some highlights of the 452 pages and around 300,000 words in the ten issues indexed here include Sue Howlett’s Childhood at Stocken Hall, Anne Barker of Hambleton and Jeremiah Whittaker, Marilyn Palmer’s Industrial Archaeology in Rutland, Oliver Creighton’s Medieval Castles of Rutland, Grahame Thom’s Rutland Convicts Transported to Australia, Michael Lee’s Turret Clock at Edith Weston, Jenny Clark’s Exton Manuscripts, Trevor Bell’s Family Structure in 19th Century Oakham and Brian Rose’s Trainspotting at Oakham. These, together with bibliographies, book reviews and annual reports from Rutland County Museum, Record Offices and archaeological groups, serve to illustrate the wide diversity of subjects covered. The issues of Rutland Record indexed here continue to bear witness to the strength of the response to Bryan Waites's challenge in 1980 which resulted in the first issue – ‘Is it not time, before all is lost, to re- establish our links with the past?’ I would like to thank Tim Clough for all his hard work in checking and correcting my original manuscript and for taking it to final publication.
