A window into the legal and social heart of 14th-century Lancashire, this remarkable volume gathers the county's surviving inquests, extents, and feudal aids from 1313 to 1355. Here, the land speaks through centuries-old English chancery rolls and manorial records, revealing the intricate web of feudal land tenure and the daily realities of Plantagenet England. Every transcript is a thread, connecting medieval legal records to the lives of real people - landholders, heirs, and local officials - whose fortunes rose and fell in the shadow of the crown. Lancashire Inquests, Extents, and Feudal Aids. Part III. A.D. 1313-A.D. 1355 stands as a cornerstone for genealogy research reference and medieval history scholars alike. The collection's meticulous county record transcripts and valuations provide rare insights into property, inheritance, and the legal customs that shaped a region's destiny. For those tracing family roots or exploring the foundations of English law, each document is both a historical source collection and a living testament to the era's complexity and humanity. It is more than a chronicle; it is a map of relationships, obligations, and ambitions, preserved in the language of the courts. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Whether you are a casual reader drawn to the drama of medieval England or a collector seeking a cultural treasure, this work offers a unique portal into the past, restored for today's and future generations.
