The Forfeited Estates Papers, 1745: a study of the work of the Commissioners for the Forfeited Annexed Estates, 1755-1784, with particular reference to their contribution to the development of communications in Scotland in the eighteenth century
The Scottish Record Office collection of the Forfeited Estates
Papers, 1745, is voluminous, including the documents of the Barons of
the Exchequer in Scotland concerning all those estates forfeited in
1747 as well as those relating to forfeited estates that were annexed
to the Crown in 1752 and managed by the Board of Commissioners for the
Forfeited Estates. This thesis is primarily a study of the work of
the Board. [Not from the Abstract - taken from the Preface]
