National ArchivesMasters of Apprentices registered at Oxford (1750-1754)
Apprenticeship indentures and clerks' articles were subject to a 6d or 12d per pound stamp duty: the registers of the payments usually give the master's trade, address, and occupation, and the apprentice's father's name and address, as well as details of the date and length of the apprenticeship. There are central registers for collections of the stamp duty in London, as well as returns from collectors in the provinces. These collectors generally received duty just from their own county, but sometimes from further afield. (The sample entry shown on this scan is taken from a Norfolk return)

Hertfordshire sureties for badgers, higglers and drovers (1765-1767)
Highly condensed abstracts of Hertfordshire Sessions Books and Minute Books were prepared by William le Hardy, and published for the County Council in 1935. Appendix IV is a list of licences granted to badgers, higglers and drovers: and this is the index to the sureties; each applicant for a licence had himself to sign a bond for £10 and also to find two sureties in £5 each. As a rule these sureties were themselves applying for licences, but these are the names of those who stood surety, but were not applying for licences. In each case full name is given, parish, and the year(s) (e. g., 65 for 1765).
