Robert Waldby

Scope and Content

AbpReg/15 is the register of the vicar-general. There are references to Waldby's own register extra diocesim in inventories of 1398 and 1405 (D.M. Smith, 'Lost Archiepiscopal Registers of York: the evidence of five medieval inventories', Borthwick Institute Bulletin, I, p. 35) but it is likely that it never came to York after Waldby's death (it was in London 'in scribendo et componendo') and soon disappeared.
