Books
Two justices of the peace from South Buckinghamshire kept notebooks recording their justicing activities: Sir Roger Hill of Denham Place and Edmund Waller of Hall Barn, Beaconsfield. Hill's notebook covers 1689-93 and 1702-05, with some additional documents from 1727-28. Waller's notebook covers 1773 and 1786-88, and an appendix includes loose papers from thirty-six of his cases. Justices dealt with a vast range of matters, not all of them related to crime. These notebooks provide a fascinating account of life in the county during this period.
