============================================================================ ELIZABETHAN LIFE : DISORDER This book, by Dr F G Emmison, is one of his series of five books on life in Elizabethan Essex. This index, ESS16C5.TXT, is the fifth in my series of indexes from these books. My four previous indexes in this series have covered two of Dr Emmison's other books in the set and this index extends the indexing to a total of three books. Dr Emmison's introduction to this volume is well worth reading and I intend to excerpt from it and to upload a file based on his comments. One point is worth noting, sadly, here. He says "Many personal names are omitted, to save space... The great majority of documents relating to persons or parishes are of interest mainly to family historians and genealogists and to parish historians. For them the Essex Record Office has compiled not only full indices to the calendars of the criminal court records but also what is probably the biggest index of personal names for any county." In one sense that is great, but it also means that it is not readily available for upload into the BBS system. Hence my indexes are only a part of what could probably be an index of the majority of the population of Elizabethan Essex. The book is full of information like "Two Braintree labourers drove away two pigs ... Two High Roothing men cut down and stole ... A Dagenham wheelwright stole ... " O for their names ! And Emmison specifically excludes many names we would think most valuable .. "No mention is made of the hundreds of ... indictments for larceny where the personal names are those of humble people .." As you work through the book you are painfully aware of all the missing names - if the victim is an important person he is far more likely to be named. All too often we have a reference to XYZ Gentleman and six other named men, or the like. This was intentional but another two or three pages to the book would have allowed thousands more names to be included.
