Scope and content

A group of twenty-five volumes, forming part of a once larger series, containing subject of word indexes of scriptural, theological, historical and literary references compiled, and written partly in a shorthand script, by William Lloyd (1627-1717), successively bishop of St. Asaph (1680-92), Lichfield (1692-9), and Worcester (1699-1717). In some cases title-deeds largely of the early seventeenth century have been used as protective covers, while eleven bifolia used for a similar purpose have been detached to create NLW MS 11330D (see 544, below).
