Dear all, The Database of Court Officers, 1660-1837, has a new home. It has moved to: http://courtofficers.ctsdh.luc.edu/ The Database of Court Officers is an online database providing the career histories of every remunerated officer and servant of the English royal household, plus extraordinary and supernumerary servants, from the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660 to the accession of Queen Victoria in 1837. The DCO extends, corrects and completes the data on the royal household first set forth in Officials of the Royal Household 1660-1837, compiled by Sir John Sainty, KCB and Robert Bucholz, 2 vols., published by the Institute of Historical Research, London in 1997-98, as volumes eleven and twelve of the series "Officeholders in Modern Britain." The DCO extends the coverage of that work to servants of all ranks in all 49 departments or sub-departments of the royal household, comprising 893 offices held by 14,772 individuals. The present work is the only available database giving the full staff of any large department of the British government, and should be of use to historians, literary scholars, musicologists, art historians, genealogists and anyone interested in the sociology of institutions, patronage and power. The Database of Court Officers is directed by Prof. R.O. Bucholz, Professor of History, Loyola University Chicago. It is hosted by Loyola's Center for Textual Studies and Digital Humanities.
