Family Feuds – An Introduction to Chancery Proceeding

Description

(Susan T Moore)  ‘Chancery Proceedings’ has become a generic term that encompasses the records of all the courts of equity.

The book is in two parts, the first part is intended to whet the appetite of the amateur family historian by describing why the records of the Equity Courts are worth looking at and answering such questions as what sort of cases were brought to these courts and how easy they are to read.  The second part describes the records themselves and the indexes and calendars that will enable you to look at them.
