PREFATORY NOTE.

IN bringing forward the present Volume the ACTING EDITOR of the

MISCELLANEA GENEALOGICA ET HERALDICA feels that he cannot forget to notice the devout attention which the late Dr. HOWARD paid to the authenticity of documents and the dates committed to his judgment and approval, and how, in any case submitted to him, his decision was always on the right side, and his opinion at all times cheerfully given without any ulterior gain to himself.

The EDITORS have to acknowledge with pleasure the various contributions made by Mr. A. F. G. LEVESON GOWER, F.S.A., of H.B.M. Legation, The Hague, as it is their duty to again thank him for the transcriptions of the Monuments in the Church of St. Giles-in-the-Fields. To our able contributor Mr. MAXWELL ADAMS, B.A., we were indebted for the History of the Family of Adams, which included an interesting account of the Family of Viscount Iveagh. To Mr. CECIL T. DAVIS they are much indebted for his ample account of the Inhabitants of Wandsworth. The genealogical history of the Family of Savage of Warwickshire is also interesting, the pedigree shewing the maternal relatives of Walter Savage. Landor. To Mr. EVERARD GREEN, F.S.A., Rouge Dragon, they owe their best thanks for the pedigree he contributed, and also to Mr. GEORGE GRAZEBROOK, F.S.A., for his "Physiological Curiosity," which has aroused a good deal of attention in the medical world.

By the advice of Subscribers we shall issue the forthcoming Volume as Volume I., Fourth Series; it will enable many new Subscribers to join at the beginning of a Series, and will contain a transcription of the Monumental Inscriptions in the British Cemeteries of the Ionian Islands by Mr. LEVESON GOWER, which he had done previous to their demolition by the municipal authorities. We have also had copied all the monuments in St. Anne's Church, Soho, for publication.

The EDITORS trust to be favoured with contributions appertaining to family history, grants of arms, etc.; and any other matter of a genealogical nature will be always cheerfully acknowledged.
