TRANSCRIBER's NOTE
This text is transcribed from an original copy of the work ANGLIA REDIVIVA, by
Joshua Sprigge (1647), in my own possession, with the aim to increase access for
local and family historians. The County names have been modernised but otherwise
the original spelling has been retained. This edited transcription may be freely
copied, but researchers are strongly urged to consult the original if they intend
publishing data making use of this transcription. Although scarce, the book is
still available through specialist libraries and collections in the U.K., and
there is a more recent facsimile edition.
