<BR>accounting of a person's assets and debts, so that the lord could
<BR>assess the inheritance duties on the estate. Parish rolls seem to

<BR>I'm sorry to say that it did not come up, I don't think he mentioned
<BR>specifics. In any case, it was a conversation that we had maybe 3 or 4 years
<BR>ago. He was supposed to send me a copy of his thesis, but he passed on
<BR>shortly thereafter so I never got to read it first hand.
<BR>Aye,
