Item Y/COU/1/1/41 - Minute book, 1706-1720

1 volume

Minute and memoranda book, covering the period September 1706 - January 1720. Entries are broadly, but not strictly, in chronological order. Many of the early minutes contains crossings out and corrections, and look like draft minutes. The exact relationship between this volume and the draft minute books in Y/COU/1/3 is unknown, however no other draft minutes for the years 1706-1710 are known to have survived. A subject index is included at the back of the volume, organised alphabetically, as well as an additional index specifically for orders relating to orders and resolutions made during Tancred Robinson's year as Lord Mayor, 1717-1718.

Includes a list of money collected in each of the four wards of York for fire engines, 1712 at the start of the volume, as well as attendance lists of council members at the end of the volume for 1717-1719, including a list of members of the twenty four, and lists of commons by ward.
