Hi Phil
It probably came from the CRO, but he cannot remember off hand now, it was
so long ago....
If you just tell me which pages and where on the CD to my own email number
I'll see what is what.....hate to think the info is wrong!! The early ones
are part latin part old english ....
I'll try to find out where the info came from....
regards Pauline

I didn't realise this had been compiled by Richard; I just wanted
to know
how reliable it might be, as I always check sources. I'll send you -
snail-mail - a note of apparent 'errors'.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil
I missed the question to this one.....
Richard cannot remember where he obtained the information, as he done
this
extract of information quite a few years ago.....it would have been
in
the
CRO though......as this is where we do all our indexing...
I have had a look at the 17 pages which are on this part of the members
CD
and the spelling errors that I can make out, are from the 'old
english
spellings'......this is how they were copied from the
originals......names
are shortened and Carmarthen is spelt Caermarthen etc, as it was in
the
1600's......it is a date/year format by each page , so you would not
miss
information, as there is no name/year search on it, you have to go
through
each page per year, it is the name of each Burgess of that time
span.
If you let me know off line where the spelling errors are perhaps we can
amend....
thanks Pauline - Richard typed this not me!!!

> The CFHS members' CD contains notes on burgesses of Carmarthen town,
but
the source of this text is not apparent. It contains numerous
simple
spelling errors, so I wonder if the names and dates listed are reliable
?
Also, do you know if other records of these burgesses survive -
presumably
at Carmarthen Record Office?
