Our database contains the names of soldiers serving the English crown from the late 1350s to 1453. Most were fighting the French. In this second phase of the Hundred Years War major invasions of France were launched, including that of 1415 which culminated in Henry V’s victory at Agincourt 1415. We have also included soldiers serving in other theatres (Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Spain, Calais etc), and in all types of service (expeditions on land and sea, garrisons, escorts, standing forces). Why do we know so many names? The simple explanation is that soldiers received pay and this had to be audited. The financial officials of the crown were keen to check the soldiers were present and correct. The main way of doing this was by checking off their names at a muster, at the beginning of a campaign or during it, or every few months for troops in garrison. Thousands of muster rolls survive in archive collections in England, France and beyond. We also have the evidence of letters of protection which soldiers bought from the Chancery to prevent legal actions whilst they were absent from home.

The Harvard Law School Library's Nuremberg Trials Project is an open-access initiative to create and present digitized images and full-text versions of the Library's Nuremberg Trials documents, descriptions of each document, and general information about the trials. The project provides access to the documentary record and other associated materials for all thirteen trials. We currently offer page images and searchable document descriptions for all documents as well as searchable full-text versions for most prosecution exhibits and most of the trial transcripts. Both prosecution and trial exhibits as well as all trial transcripts are currently only offered in the English-language versions used at the time of the Trials. Important: when citing from documents and transcripts, always verify the exact wording by consulting the accompanying page images of the document in question. The full-text versions of transcripts and documents are a product of human- and computer-aided transcription and may deviate in small ways from the originals.

The Royal Mint Museum contains a valuable numismatic library of some 15,000 volumes. This includes archival material acquired in large part from departments of the old Royal Mint at Tower Hill, such as the Engraving Department, the Die Office and the Pyx Office. For the most part this material dates back to the beginning of the 20th century and in its day-by-day character is a useful adjunct to the official files in The National Archives and to the published Annual Reports of the Royal Mint.
