by Vernon L. Skinner Jr. (Author)

Genealogist V. L. Skinner, Jr., resumes his transcriptions of 17th-century Maryland probate records with this volume, which consists of abstracts of Prerogative Court of Maryland records for the period 1670 to 1674. The abstracts are arranged in chronological order by court session. In every instance they give the names of the principals (testators, heirs, witnesses, administrators, and so forth). In many cases we also learn the details of bequests, names of slaves, appraisers, and more.
