Excerpt from Market Harborough Parish Records: To A. D. 1530 The chief object of this volume, and of a second in course of preparation, is to place in the hands of the parishioners of Market Harborough, and of their neighbours in Great and Little Bowden, a full account of the records which have been preserved in the town, and are now in the custody of the Trustees of the Town Estate. Beyond this, it is hoped that What is brought to light in these volumes may be Of some little use to the many who are at work on the remains of the past, and who have done so much in recent years to make English people under stand the life and manners of their forefathers. The work of deciphering and arranging the town records was begun some years since at the request of the Trustees. For some time those who undertook it had no thought of publication, but the records proved to be more varied and of greater interest than was expected at the outset, and, ultimately, the whole body of the Trustees decided to publish them on their own personal responsibility. This volume has been prepared for the press under constant pressure of other calls and with many hindrances. NO trouble, however, has been spared to attain accuracy, and While the main Object in View made it necessary to give an English summary rather than the original Latin.
