The Baillies of Mellerstain : the household economy in an eighteenth-century elite householdMacDonald, Jasmine Elizabeth 13 December 2010
Account books of household expenses provide details of people's social and economic life. For Scotland during the seventeenth and eighteenth century few, if any, account books are as detailed as those of Lady Grisell Baillie of Jerviswood who lived from 1665-1746. Lady Baillie (nee Hume) is a well-known upper class woman in Scottish history, both in her own right and in relation to the tumultuous political careers of her father (Patrick Hume) and husband (George Baillie). A scholarly edition of the accounts, augmented by an 1822 biography written by her daughter, can provide insight into women's social history in eighteenth-century Scotland. The household accounts, in particular, provide the opportunity to examine what the everyday lifestyles were like for upper-class families in Scotland. These accounts include the expenses of raising and educating children, feeding a large household of family and servants and the extravagant costs involved in overseas travel. What makes Lady Grisell's accounts unique is their level of detail and organization spanning over forty years, from 1692 to 1746. In addition to the accounts the biography, written in the style of times, provides valuable information about the Baillies' marriage, family life and the Baillie girls' upbringing. These sources add to the understanding of the household and marital economy in Scotland during the long eighteenth century.

The PhD thesis concerns the managment of so called communal treasury inside the Prague cathedral chapter. Its purpose was to provide cathedral clergy who was in residence and took part in the services with the additional payment (distributions). The study is based on a unique collection of account records from the years 1358-1418 which were kept by administrators of this section of the chapter economy. Beside a description and characteristics of the preserved account books, special attention is paid to the three particular points related to the role of finances in the everyday operation of the Prague chapter and in the life of its members: 1. administration of various types of possessions belonging to the Prague chapter, followed by comparison with the ways the administration was carried out in England, Germany and Poland; 2. Form and amount of emoluments of various groupes of cathedral clergy; 3. Link between amount of additional payment and the number of canons in residence. An integral part of PhD thesis is a transcription of the researched account books, name and local index and several tabular surveys of the income and expenses of communal teasury.
