BIGLAND Ralph - Observation on Marriages, Baptisms, and Burials as preserved in Parochial Registers.. With sundry Specimens of the Entries of Marriages and Baptisms in Foreign Countries; interspersed with Remarks concerning proper Methods necessary to preserve a Remembrance of the several Branches of Families. [First and Sole Edition]. IN THE ORIGINAL WRAPPERS: A RARE SURVIVAL
Printed by W. Richardson [for] Dodsley [and several others],, 1764. 4to., First Edition, on laid paper; original dove-blue wrappers, sewed as issued, uncut, a remarkably bright, crisp, well-preserved copy secured for the future in custom-made solander case. THE ONLY COPY WE HAVE SEEN IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS. Written when Bigland was Somerset Herald, this scarce and important work constitutes a plea for the consistent and meticulous recording of family history. A rare complement to his sadly truncated endeavour in producing the definitive history of Gloucestershire. OCLC 4919515.
