The inspiration for this book, Colonial Maryland Commissions, Appointments, and Other Proceedings, 1726-1776, came from listings published in the Maryland Historical Magazine in 1931 and 1932. The information in those articles was gleaned from Maryland Commission Book No. 82, 1733-1773, being one of the records of the Council of Maryland. They contained primarily commissions for public service and appointments to various offices. There were also ship registrations with the name of the ship, its weight, when and where it was built, its master, its owner(s), and the date of registration. Inductions of clergyman and their licenses to preach, and convicted felons, their crimes, punishments and/or pardons, were included, mostly African Americans. There were also a number of naturalizations and denizations as well. Additional civil servants were subsequently found in selected county court minutes and proceedings for this book and any clarification of the information has been inserted in brackets herein and are comments of the author.
