1 Book - Burke - 1 PERI Landed Gentry - 1 EDTN various - 1899: Trotter of Horton Manor, p. 2054 Book - Reginald Cecil Lybbe Powys-Lybbe - 1 PERI Powys-Lybbe genealogy -
These are the various documents he left behing summarising his -
researches. They included: -
(1) His master tree of all families married by our forebears. -
(2) His formal pedigree of the Powyses, in the style of Burke. -
(3) His two pages of trees of various descents from medieval -
royalty, including the Trotters back to the Scottish Stewarts. -
(4) His trees of the recent Trotter marriages. -
-
Remarkably most of this has proved to be confirmed by publicly -
available documents and some of it is a remarkable set of -
findings. One or two errors have appeared, mainly where he got -
the wrong wife as the ancestor. Perhaps only 20% of this -
remains to be checked, principally the families married into by -
the Trotters in the 18th and 19th centuries. -
-
However his besetting and frustrating fault is his almost -
invariable omission of sources and similarly of dates. -
-
I suspect he relied heavily on Burke's Extinct Peerage, judging -
by the heavily thumbed copy in APL's possession in 1999. But -
there is also evidence that went to various libraries and paid -
handsomely for primary documentary evidence of some 16th and -
17th century families. -
-
Nevertheless most of my work has been to extend and verify his -
enormous efforts. He really was a serious genealogist (like -
Martin but who follows the stricter regime of the last quarter -
of the 20th century) and I have considerable admiration for what -
he found out. Book - 1 PERI Lyon Register - Of the Court of the Lord Lyon, Edinburgh - (A Lyon Herald) - James Trotter's 1803 matriculation, Vol 1, Folio 220
