The Names of the Roman Catholics, Nonjurors, and Others, Who Refus'd to Take the Oaths to His Late Majesty King George. ... Transmitted to the Late Co (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781143576591)

"The Names of the Roman Catholics, Nonjurors, and Others, Who Refus'd to Take the Oaths to His Late Majesty King George" is a historical record meticulously compiled in 1746. This work lists individuals who declined to swear allegiance to King George, a significant act of defiance in the turbulent times following the Jacobite uprisings. The names were originally transmitted to the Commissioners for Forfeited Estates, providing a valuable snapshot of religious and political dissent in 18th-century Britain.

This book serves as an essential resource for genealogists, historians, and anyone interested in the social and political landscape of the era. It offers insights into the lives and loyalties of those who, for reasons of conscience or conviction, chose to remain steadfast in their beliefs, even in the face of potential forfeiture and legal repercussions. The detailed returns from the Clerks of the Peace provide a rich tapestry of names and locations, making it an invaluable primary source for understanding a pivotal period in British history.
