Notes:

Describes the lives and surveys of individual surveyors within the context of a descriptive text and not as a gazetteer. Part 1 comprises an introduction inter alia to the work of surveyors while the much larger Part 2 [pp32-134] deals with the surveyors within three periods, 1700-34, 1735-69 and 1770-99 and as to whether they were 'Essex surveyors' or 'Surveyors from outside Essex'
