Paper
Part I: 1 folios; part II.1–8: 2 + 7 + 1 + 1 +74 + 39 + 55 + 42 folios; part III.1–2: 30 + 2 folios.
Part II: Some folders (II.5–8) show two sets of modern foliation: one in the upper margin of the Japanese paper; another in the lower margin of each leaf’s verso. Both foliations skip several leaves (in II.5 the foliation includes leaves 4–27, 30, 32–34, 36–41, 43–50, 52–56, 58–70, 82–94; in II.6, leaves 4–6, 26–43, 43a, 43b, 44, 44a, 45, 45a, 45b, 46–53, 54a, 54b, 55; in II.7, leaves 1–55; and in II.8, leaves 1–3, 6–20, 23–28, 31–38, 41–49, 51). The second foliation shows numbers ranging between 31 and 235. It does not proceed in sequence. The foliation seems to be part of some work of reconstruction, which has tried to account for lost leaves.
The collection contains fragments of at least three distinct collections. The fragments in part II are closely related and one scribe is mostly responsible for the writing, but they were not necessarily all bound within the same covers. The collection contains both bifolia and singletons. Most have been heavily conserved using Japanese paper.
II.5: fols. 14 and 15 are smaller slips entered before fol. 16. The text contains several corrections and cancellations, which suggest it is a draft. II.6: leaves heavily conserved. II.8: fol. 28 placed before fol. 41. Fol. 51 is badly torn.
One column with a varying number of lines.
I: One hand writing a cursive of
saec. XVI
.
II.1–8: one main hand writing a cursive of
saec. XVI
. A few additional contemporary cursive hands supplied shorter stints on the first leaves.
III: three hands writing cursives of
saec. XVI
.
No decoration.
Unbound fragments kept loose in modern folders or in modern bindings.
The collection has three main parts, which probably stem from different sources. Part II can be connected to
Per Sigfriedsson Tandefelt
, who functioned as a scribe and
lagman
from the 1560s to 1580s. In several instances the writing seems to have been done quickly, and on some leaves there is a considerable quantity of cancellations, corrections and additions. The result has the character of a draft rather than a fair copy.
The court records are formed of singletons and bifolia, which have been arranged into chronological order at the archives. In uncertain cases, the page numbers have been marked with square brackets.
At least a part of the collection was kept at the manor of
Koskipää
at the beginning of
saec. XIX
. The manor had belonged to the
Tandefelt
family but came to the
Gerdten
family through marriage. The fragments were donated to the
Historical Museum of Turku
in
1909
and was deposited in the
Maakunta-arkisto
(
Provincial Archives
) in
1934
.
Unpublished catalogue entry available at the archives.
