Research notes on the Pierrepont family, Earls Manvers, of Holme Pierrepont and Thoresby, Nottinghamshire, collected by Pamela Priestland and members of the Radcliffe-on-Trent Local History Society

The Radcliffe-on-Trent Local History Society, under the leadership of Pamela Priestland, undertook research into the history of the Pierrepont family over the course of a number of years. The research was published in 'From Domesday to Dukedom and beyond : the history of the Pierrepont family' by Pamela Priestland, in 2010. A letter in MS 396/4/1/29 confirms that the published book was received by the Society in October 2010. The Society also published a companion volume, 'Holme Pierrepont : its history from the earliest times to the 1801 census', by Beryl Cobbing, c.2012.

The papers have been arranged into three series. Within series, the papers have been arranged chronologically (MS 396/4/1), by institution (MS 396/4/2), or alphabetically by subject (MS 306/4/3).

Accessible to all readers.
