SKINNER & COMPANY, LTD. 1929. cs INTRODUCTION. The Register of Apprentices for the City of Edinburgh, from 29th May 1583 to 30th May 1666, was edited by Francis J. Grant, W.S., now Lyon King of Arms, and was issued in 1906. The present volume carries on the work to the end of the year 1700, and owes much to its predecessor. There are no of the entries separate registers apprentices ; occur along with those of Burgesses and Guild-brethren in the scroll registers of the Dean of Guild Court, from which the Burgesses and Guild-brethren were carefully and legibly entered in their own register volumes, some of which still exist. Whether the entries of apprentices were so transferred I cannot say; if so the volumes have disappeared. The writing of those scrolls is execrable, utterly hasty and often almost illegible. The regular form of the entry can, of course, always be followed, and as a rule the christian and sur- names can be deciphered without much risk of error, but the local names are so badly written, and often so evidently a wild attempt at phonetic spelling, that even the experts, whose help I most gratefully acknowledge, have in some cases been forced to rest content with little more than conjecture. In many—perhaps most—cases the local names refer to lands quite beyond reach of identification. Some notes and a glossary will be found at the end of the book when completed. CHARLES B.

EDINBURGH Printed at the University Press by T. A. Constable Ltd. for the Scottish History Society 1922 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION DIARY—Vol. I. DIARY—You II. INDEX INTRODUCTION Of the two MS. volumes containing the Diary, of which the following pages are an abstract, it was the second which first came into my hands. It had found its way by some unknown means into the archives in the Offices of the Church of Scotland, Edinburgh ; it had been lent about 1899 to Colonel Milne Home of Wedderburn, who was interested in the district where Ridpath lived, but he died shortly after receiving it. The volume remained in possession of his widow, who transcribed a large portion with the ultimate view of publication, but this was never carried out, and Mrs. Milne Home kindly handed over the volume to me. It was suggested that the Scottish History Society might publish the work as throwing light on the manners and customs of the period, supplementing and where necessary correcting the Autobiography of Alexander Carlyle, the Life and Times of Thomas Somerville, and the brilliant, if prejudiced, sketch of the ecclesiastical and religious life in Scotland in the eighteenth century by Henry Gray Graham in his well-known work. When this proposal was considered it was found that the Treasurer of the Society, Mr.

PREFATORY NOTE. This volume completes the Index to this Commissariot, so far as it is proposed by the Society to print the same. It includes all Testaments recorded before 31st December 1800. The remainder of the Record down to 31st December 1829 is in the General Register House, but from that date to the present day it will be found at the Commissary Office. The Register for the Eighteenth Century shows a considerable falling away in the number of Testaments recorded, due to some extent to the Local Registers being more taken advantage of On the other hand, a number of Testaments of Scotsmen dying in England, the Colonies, and abroad are to be found. The Register for the years following on the Union of the Parliaments is one of melancholy interest, containing as it does, to a certain extent, the death-roll of the ill-fated Darien Expedition.

  • The Royal Library As a Source for Sir Robert Cotton's Collection: a Preliminary List of Acquisitions
    THE ROYAL LIBRARY AS A SOURCE FOR SIR ROBERT COTTON'S COLLECTION: A PRELIMINARY LIST OF ACQUISITIONS JAMES P. CARLEY PUBLIC Record Office, Augmentation Office, Misc. Books i6o (E. 315/160), ff. iO7v-i2or, contains an alphabetical list of 910 books, printed and manuscript, found in the Upper Library at Westminster Palace in 1542.^ At approximately the same time the inventory was compiled, so it would appear, a number was entered into each book: this number corresponded to the place where the book occurred in the alphabetical sequences established by the list. Slightly afterwards, probably around 1550, more books came to Whitehall - presumably from Hampton Court and Greenwich - and these too were put into alphabetical order and an inventory number inserted.^ Somewhat later the printed and manuscript books were separated.^ The form of the inventory number inserted in each book is characteristic: it is always found on an upper recto corner of an early folio, and always takes the form 'No '. Most of the manuscripts found in the Upper Library at Westminster Palace, and it is manuscripts alone that I shall be discussing in this paper, were rescued from monastic houses at the time of the Dissolution^ and many have remained in the royal collection ever since. Not every title in the inventory, however, can be matched with a surviving royal book: indeed, approximately half disappeared at some point after 1542. The first major disruption, it would seem, must have occurred shortly after Henry VIII's death in 1547, in the period when Traheron, a radical evangehst, was librarian and when Edward VI's injunctions concerning the destruction of popish books were promulgated.'' Throughout Elizabeth's reign, too, books trickled out.

  • The Golfer's Annual for 1869-70
    ONE ILLIKG AND SIXPEN : No. G-/PO2.. * « GOLFER'S ANNUAL FOR 18.69-70. COMPILED AMD EDITED BY CHARLES MACARTHFR. AYE: TROTTED AND PUBLTSIIED BY HENRY & GRANT. 16 PKEFACE. GOLF, the National Game of Scotland, and one of the most enticing of out-door exercises, is now so extensively indulged in as to deserve, at least, some statistical publication. A few years ago a work similar1 to this was published, but was not continued. Since then the practice of the Game has rapidly extended; and many solicitations having recently boon made to the Editor to bring out a GOLFER'S ANNUAL, his love for the Game, and his desire to gratify Golfers and others, induced him to undertake the work. The ANNUAL contains much interesting matter, such as a record of all the Golf Clubs at present known, with their respective. Competitions and Tournaments during the last three years, the llules of the Game observed by different Clubs, as well as other incidents; and the details of tho Competitions for the Champion Belt since its institution by the Prestwick Golf Club have been deemed of sufficient importance to entitle them to consider- able space. While imperfections may be apparent, it. is hoped that, though not claimed on its merits, the object of the ANNUAL will secure it a passport for this year, and that sufficient encouragement will be j^'ven for the appearance of its suc- cessor. The thanks of the. Editor avo due, and are now warmly tendered, to the Secretaries of the different Clubs, and others, who so readily furnished information in aid of his efforts.' 1JRUNTON C'OTTAGK, LONDON ROAD, EDINBURGH, Fubfuaiu, 1S70.

    SCS.5HS.I6I SCOTTISH HISTORY SOCIETY FIFTH SERIES VOLUME 2 Letters of George Lockhart of Carnwath A Letters of George Lockhart of Carnwath 1698-1732 edited by Daniel Szechi, d.phil ★ EDINBURGH printed for the Scottish History Society by PILLANS & WILSON SPECIALIST LITHO PRINTERS LTD. EDINBURGH 1989 © Scottish History Society 1989 ISBN 906245 11 7 Printed in Great Britain PREFACE The collection of letters below is the surviving personal and official correspondence of George Lockhart of Carnwath. Legal statements, estate management papers and all the numerous works intended for publication have been excluded for the sake of brevity, with the partial exception of an open letter which was circulated anonymously in manuscript around Edinburgh in 1713. Many legal and estate papers survive; these are held by the National Library of Scotland in Acc.7124 and 4322 (Lockharts of Lee and Carnwath), and others may be found in the records of the House of Lords. The bulk of material either published or intended for publication, as well as Lockhart’s extensive autobiographical writings, can be found in Anthony Aufrere’s excellent edition of The Lockhart Papers (2 vols, 1817). Thus far I have been unable to discover the eventual fate of the manuscripts from which Aufrere compiled The Lockhart Papers. Nevertheless, my own research has many times confirmed both the authenticity of what is contained therein and Aufrere’s reputation for painstaking scholarship. It should be emphasised that the collected letters that follow constitute the complete corpus of Lockhart’s correspondence known to me at the present time. It is perfectly possible that other letters may survive in archives not accessible at the time my research was being conducted, most notably the archive of the Dukes of Argyll at Inveraray.

    The Tullo alias Tulloch family in Dundee, Liff and Tealing 1650-1960 The old doocot at Mains of Tealing by Dr David Horsburgh (2019) The Tullo alias Tulloch Family During the 17th century a family by the name of Tullo emerged in several places in and around the Dundee area. The surname Tullo was rendered in a number of variant spellings as Tollo, Tullou, Tullow, etc, and by the pet forms Tolly and Tully. It was often equated with Tulloch, the form which eventually became dominant, and was occasionally confounded with Pattullo(ck) too. The family in the present account first appeared in the parish records of Liff during the mid- 17th century and were largely tailors by profession, some of whom were entered freemen of the tailor trade of the neighbouring burgh of Dundee. One of these, James Tullo, moved from Liff to Tealing about 1672 and the family were based there until the 1720‟s when they came into the Hilltown where they had purchased some roods of land. Another, James Tullo in Craigie, became the ancestor of several hat makers who ran businesses and held property in Dundee during the 19th and early 20th centuries. His notable descendants include John Laurie Tulloch (1819-1898) a bailie and councillor of Dundee, Dr James Kinnison Tulloch (1851- 1924) who was chief medical officer to Dundee Parochial Board and an early photographic enthusiast, and Professor William John Tulloch (1887-1966) who held the first chair of Bacteriology at University College, Dundee during the years 1921-1962. There are also a number of other Dundee-based families descended from the Tullos for whom research is ongoing and who are indicated in the following account.
