Derbyshire at the height of the Stuart age: its gentle families summoned, their names, alliances and arms committed to the record by the herald William Dugdale. The Visitation Of Derbyshire, Taken In 1662, And Reviewed In 1663 is a classic heraldic visitation record, capturing in formal pedigree the social fabric of seventeenth century Derbyshire. History lives in these pages. Every carefully traced descent and English coats of arms reflect rank, loyalty and local power at a moment of delicate political balance. Preserved here are Derbyshire family pedigrees set out generation by generation, an indispensable English genealogy reference and historical county register for anyone engaged in gentry lineage research. As a resource for genealogists and a trusted reference for family historians, this William Dugdale visitation offers authentic evidence for names, marriages, inheritances and heraldic bearings across the county, linking local lineages to the wider story of Stuart period England. Students of local history, heraldry and social change gain a rare, structured view into how status was recorded, proved and transmitted within the wider English county visitations collection undertaken under the authority of the College of Arms. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
