5 small tax certificates - help filling in the blanks

[snowathlete]

I have received copies of five tax certificates from the National Archives.
They are supposed to be certificate of residence showing James Langton to be liable for taxation in Gloucestershire, and not in Somerset. They are each fairly small and a couple have the bottom destroyed.

I am hoping that the certificates contain some breakthrough material, specifically mentioning locations in Glos. or Somerset where he lived.

I have started trying to transcribe these, and have managed two partial transcriptions so far. Could someone help me fill in the blanks that i cant decipher?

You can view and/or download the scans here:

Thanks in advance!

Hi Joel,

Here is the first one you began to transcribe:


To the right honble Sr Lawrence Tanfield

Courte of Exchequer and to the reste of the
Barows Audiotor and officers there

Wee whose names are subscribed two of his Maj[estie]s
Commissioners for the taxation and asseassinge within the
City of Bristol, and the lib[er]ties thereof the firste subsidy
of three intire Subsidyes granted to or Sov[er]aigne Lord the
King in the first Session of Parliam[en]t houlden at Westm[inster]
in the one and twentieth yeere of his highnes Reigne, doe

[Latin translates: "year of the reign of King James of England etc. 22, and Scotland 58, 1624"]


The other ones are very similar, so you should be able to read most of them without much trouble. If there are any parts in particular you can't get just let us know.

Thanks

Hi Joel,

I've just taken a look at the new transcript you posted. That one is almost identical in wording to the one I did, so maybe you could go back through it comparing the words you couldn't get to the words in my transcript.

Alexander

[snowathlete]

Good idea Alexander, I'll do that.

[snowathlete]

OK, ive redone CCF061122012_00000.jpg_transcript. Its much more complete, not too many words missing.

I will do the same on the third one.

[Alexander.]

That's great, there wasn't much left to fill in.

Thanks Alexander. I have done the same with the 02 transcript, but that was harder as the format and content seems to be a bit different.

[snowathlete]

I've transcribed the remaining documents as far as I can. Not many missing words.
Would someone mind taking a quick look at these missing words? I dont need a full complete transcript really, just need any key details - specifically any places that might be stated that i might have missed.

Thanks
