Abstracts of Estates of Popish Recusants

[fluffyferret]

Hi,

I have found my 7 x great grandfather Cuthbert Evans of Stanhope listed in Forfeited Estates Commission: abstracts of estates of Popish recusants 1717 on Findmypast.

My old eyes can make out some of his entry but I cannot decipher the headings at the top of the columns of the page.

As it’s information from National Archives am I able to post the top of the page with the headings on here for help?

Best wishes,
Carole

Thank you Sarah 

Attaching the page headings and Cuthbert’s entry which is at the top of the list.

Any help with deciphering the headings etc would be really appreciated.

Best wishes,

Carole

Only managed to post half of the image so trying to attach the rest.

I think the first heading is:

Names of Papish
Recusants  Convict  &
Papists who have
Registered their Estates

[Greensleeves]

Third heading:

Parishes & Townships
where the same Iye.


These records are really interesting.  My ancestors in Tudhoe (not too far from Stanhope) lost everything thanks to their part in the Rising of the North (1569).  The head of the household was condemned to death but pardoned by EIizabeth I who took his property instead.
