- Additional Physical Characteristics:
- Description by Madyson Huck, with assistance from Dr. Adrienne Williams Boyarin (ENGL), as part of coursework for a manuscript studies class with Dr. Williams Boyarin, June 2022:The dimensions of the fragments vary, with the largest (a nearly complete text block, with margins trimmed off) measuring 80 x 70mm. Condition also varies. The letters on some fragments are faded and discoloured (particularly on the spine), while others (visible on the inner covers) are in excellent condition. Reddish plummet ruling is clearly visible on inner-cover fragments.There is evidence of illumination on all of the fragments, and the details match for each: illuminated gold initials are surrounded by blue or red with white details, similar in design to the line fillers, which are red and blue on each side with white details and a gold central circle.Script contains primary features of gothic textualis, including straight strokes, even for curved letters like "o" and "c", and the biting of connected letters, such as "d" and "e". The script also contains slight cursive features; many words are written without the pen being lifted.Fragment 1, top spine. The recto and verso are both visible on the spine (47x 36 mm). In the front inside cover, the the recto is visible (40 x 50 mm). Fragment 2, middle spine. The recto and verso are both visible on the spine(47 x 40 mm). In the front inside cover, part of the verso is also visible (40 x 10 mm).Fragment 3, bottom spine, visible only in the front inside cover (55 x 30mm). Fragment 4, bottom spine, visible only in the back inside cover (80 x 70mm).

- Extent:
- Genealogical roll on parchment; 9 membranes/skins attached by glue; measuring 7560 x 432 mm total (about 21 feet x 5 inches)
- Geographic Coverage:
- England
- Coordinates:
- 52.16045, -0.70312
- Additional Physical Characteristics:
- Written on 9 skins, in red and black, marginal border of hair-line stems and heavy bell-like flowers. 2.8 mm decorative borders adorn each side in multicolor pigments (pink, blue, green, red, yellow, and grey, with gold, silver, and brown detailing), with hair-line stems and heavy bell-like flowers. Vertical columns (including borders) are ruled in ink; pricking for horizontal ruling is visible at outer edges. Genealogical lines are generally drawn in red, with plain red circles around names, but additional green lines begin on membrane 6. These seem to indicate disruptions in lineage (starting around King Stephen). Text is written in black, brown, red, and occasionally green, generally in a fifteenth-century humanistic cursive, though date columns and a few early entries are in a gothic script. Another later hand titles the roll on the dorse edge of membrane 9. It would seem that the floral border, the column of dates, and the first few records (which are in Gothic letter) belong to the year 1472 and that the remainder (which is in italic script) was done at the beginning of the 16th century. No evidence of wood or other attachments for rolling; item was originally rolled top to bottom, as evidenced by titular label on the dorse of the bottom edge and patterns of damage. Significant mold, staining, and use-related damage exists, especially at membranes 6-9. Ink fading and damage to parchment significantly affects legibility from membrane 5 on, though some faded text is recoverable under UV light. Pigments of decorative floral borders are mostly in tact until membranes 7-9, and then show significant cracking, smudging, and flaking. Wrinkling, holes, and small tears occur throughout. Evidence of repairs may be observed, especially between membranes 8-9, where parchment has been used to stabilize significant tearing and deterioration at edges.
- Physical Repository:
- University of Victoria (B.C.). Library
- Collection:
- Medieval and Early Modern Manuscripts Collection
- Provenance:
- The roll was donated to the University of Victoria in 1989 by Bruce and Dorothy Brown, who purchased it from Maggs Bros Ltd (London). It is unknown when Maggs acquired the roll. Markings on the top and bottom of the dorse side indicate it was once sold for 4 guineas (a currency discontinued in the UK in 1816) and later for £70.
