MS. GENEALOGY OF THE PASTON FAMILY (+ additional chapters - see below)
Book Description
The object of Francis Sandford, author of the very detailed 'Genealogical History of England', was evidently the deduction of the Paston pedigree from the English patriarch of the family to Robert Lord Yarmouth, his employer at the time.
The main article in these Original Papers is centred on Sanford's work, compiled by Worship, but it is also accompanied by additional chapters : 'Castle Rising' by Henry Harrod ; 'On Two Ancient Charters' by C W Goodwin ; and a Catalogue of the Antiquities in the Norfolk & Norwich Museum (1853)
