All matters of probate went directly to the Prerogative Court, which was located in Maryland's colonial capital, Annapolis. The Prerogative Court was also the colony's court for equity cases--resolution of disputes over the settlement and distribution of an estate. Volume XXVII of this series by Vernon L. Skinner is derived from this important source for Maryland genealogists. It consists of abstracts for the balance of 1753 and then backtracks to pick up abstracts for 1750-1751, owing to the contents of the balance of Liber 33, Liber 34, and part of Liber 35.
