Excerpt from Calendar of the Gormanston Register: From the Original in the Possession of the Right Honourable the Viscount of Gormanston Sir Christopher must have looked upon the old deeds largely in the light of their antiquarian interest, for though the primary purpose of the book was to preserve in convenient form a record of the evidences of the titles of the family estates, he happily admitted into the collection transcripts of many early documents, including some of the largest entries in the book, which did not relate to property ever in the possession of his family, and which could have interested him only as an antiquary. Many of these early documents would have remained unknown to history but for Sir Christopher's happy preservation of them here. It will be convenient briefly to sketch the history of the Preston family and its connexions so far as they are illustrated in the documents preserved here.
