The Commissariot of Argyll: Register of Inventories, 1693-1702 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Commissariot of Argyll: Register of Inventories, 1693-1702

The Register of Inventories, which is contained in ten volumes, dating from 10 July 1693 to 27 November 1702, supplies a blank in the Register of Testaments, an index' to which has already been printed by the Society. The testaments of a few of the persons whose inventories are given in this record are to be found in that Register. These are marked with T. In this Index.

The Commissary appears to have made a very complete perambulation through his district during the period included in this Index, visiting each parish and making up inventories of the various defuncts. No estate seems to have been too small to escape furnishing its quota to the Commissary's fees.

In an Appendix will be found the lists of persons summoned to account for the estates of defuncts in certain parishes.
