DescriptionThis item appears to have originally been written in 1662 and updated thereafter to 1678. The three membranes (the third of which has become detached) are of different parchment but the handwriting appears to be the same at the end of the first, throughout the second and at the beginning of the third. It includes the dates 1679 and 1680 but the details have not then been entered.
