SourceReferenceNotes
Books of AdjournalJC2/11; JC2/10 fo. 10v-17vJC2/11 and JC2/10 were exactly the same text! Except the sederunt in JC2/10 doesn't say that the trial happened in Dalkeith. Also found in the High Court Record Index, no. 1 for 3/8/1661, this index did not distinguish between circuit and high court cases. This list of names was added in the margins with a modern hand, no indication of where the person got the list.
