John Aubrey died before was able to research and publish the notes he made during his journey
around Wiltshire. Some two hundred years later John Jackson undertook this task, and below
is his corrections and updated information.
The first three individual crests are less than 3 cms wide,
and crest 555 is 4.7 cms wide in the book, so the quality may appear
distorted, depending on the size of the screen you are viewing them on.
These images are from the book Wiltshire Collections.
Each page has some text and some notes - in order to read it more
easily, the pages have been cut and pasted to keep the text separate
from the notes. However, this does mean they appear rather
untidy in places. The shaded areas at the side of some pages
are where the pages were not flat against the scanner - pressing the
book flat may have damaged the book.
The book Wiltshire Collections
by John Aubrey and John Jackson was published by the Wiltshire
Archaeological and Natural History Society in 1862. The book is
