Synopsis

Genealogist V. L. Skinner, Jr., resumes his transcriptions of 17th-century Maryland probate records with the sixth volume of his series, "Abstracts of the Testamentary Proceedings of the Prerogative Court of Maryland." Volume VI covers the years 1686-1689 and 1692-1693 and is based on Libers 13 (Folios 432-519), 14, 14A and 15A. Mr. Skinner has combed through administration, bond, will, inventory, administration account, and final balance entries to produce this collection. The abstracts are arranged chronologically by court session. For the most part, the transcriptions state the names of the principals (testators, heirs, witnesses, administrators, and so forth) as well as details of bequests, names of slaves, appraisers, and more. Volume VI refers to about 8,000 17th-century Marylanders whose existence and activities would otherwise remain buried in some rich but very off-the-beaten-track records.
