Most of these lists cover the period of 1547 to 1714. A complete list of treasurers and first lords of the treasury is in F. M. Powicke and E. B. Fryde, Handbook of British Chronology (2d. ed. 1961) pp. 99–105, 107–10. There is a list of treasury commissioners up to 1862 in the P. R. O. Deputy Keeper's Report No. 25 (1864) app. 4, pp. 61–70; also for the years 1660 to 1702 in S. B. Baxter, The Development of the Treasury, 1660–1702 (1957) app. 1, pp. 266–70. For the holders of the office of chancellor of the exchequer from 1714 until 1958, see Powicke and Fryde, Handbook of British Chronology, pp. 105, 106. For the barons of the exchequer, see E. Foss, Judges of England, 9 vols. (1848–64) and Foss, Tabulae Curiales (1865).
JUDICIAL OFFICERS 1547–1714
These are lists of the exchequer officers who had active judicial functions on the equity side of the court. It has not been carried past 1714 for a variety of reasons. In this year the last treasurer of the exchequer resigned; the office has been vacant ever since. This is the date at which the list of chancellors of the exchequer begins in F. M. Powicke and E. B. Fryde, Handbook of British Chronology (2nd ed. 1961) pp. 105, 106; furthermore, the chancellors of the exchequer had very little to do with the exchequer court after 1714.
