INTRODUCTION.

This volume is an index to the rnanuscript records ofthe Council from 1631 to

volumes, labeled Book I, Book II, etc., and each book has been indexed entire,
including some miscellaneous papers bound with the records of proceedings.
Book I to Book VI inclusive are Council Records of the Province of New
Hampshire. From November 2, 1728, to April 5, 1742, including the administra
tions of Governor Burnet and of Governor Belcher; and from July 30, 1767, to
December 22, 1772, during a part ofthe administration of Governor John Went
worth, the Council Records have not been preserved.
Books VII and VIII include the records ofthe Council during the revolutionary
period. This body, composed of twelve men, was styled a council, but in modern
terms it would more appropriately be called a senate.
