Notes:

Sometimes attributed to Sylvester Douglas, Baron Glenbervie and D. or Dr. Douglas; the attribution to Sylvester Douglas (b. 1743) is incorrect as p. xviii of the preface to the Nomenclature states "The compiler of this nomenclature attended the several courts of justice himself, in and from Trinity term, 1750, ...".

In three parts, the history, the catalogue and the nomenclature: each is separately paginated but the register is continuous. There are three indices for the three parts at the end of the whole volume.
