Where information is sought as to Members of Parliament, the Blue Book Returns should be consulted, and a valuable official work, Returns to Two Orders of the House of Commons (dated 4th May 1876 and 9th March 1877) of the Names of every Member returned to Serve in each Parliament from the Earliest Time to 1874.
Cave’s Parliamentary Register brings the list of members down to 1741; The Chronological Register of Parliament from 1707 to 1807, by Robert Beatson, gives the required information between these dates.
Besides the MS. authorities with regard to the Army and Navy which have already been enumerated, printed books on the subject, especially if the searcher is not looking for very early information, should not be ignored. Of course there are, as every one knows, official Army and Navy Lists, and a good deal of genealogical information may be derived from other books, as especially as regards the Navy.
Notable amongst these are:—
A Naval Biographical Dictionary, by W. R. O’Byrne.
