Excerpt from The Index Library, Vol. 3
As a full account of Inquisitions post mortem was given in the pre face to vol. Ix. Of the Index Library, there remains but little to be said concerning them, except to repeat that they give much useful information both concerning the genealogy of the deceased person, as well as of the topography of the county, for these Inquisitions abound in Ofield-names, manors and hamlets, some of which can still be traced to-day, while others have completely disappeared.
