Comparing your CD and the 1841 and 1861 ones which I have purchased ......I'd give you full marks.    BK

1670 Hearth tax 

Wonderful information on above.    Y

1856 Orielton CD

.......that sort of docuemnt is a gem and should appeal to anyone with an  interest in the area..    GH

Thanks for the CD it arrived this morning.  Its really interesting.    SD

Thanks for sending it so promptly. I'm thoroughly enjoying looking through it as there's so much information on there.
It's often not easy to find that much information on people who were just ag labs or miners.
I'm really pleased with the estate maps which show where each item was located.
I'm not that familiar with the area so this is particularly useful for me.    GL

........the CD I received recently. It is certainly very interesting - as the lands under auction were larger than I had expected I have found more of my ancestors than I anticipated..    MG
