page ix note 3 Ponsonby refers to five journals in this category: those of Rugg, Narcissus Luttrell, Lord Malmesbury, Charles Greville and Nassau Senior. English Diaries, p. 5.
page ix note 4 The Diurnal is in two bound volumes. The first contains 272 folios, the second 251, not including ten folios filled in with index items in a nineteenth-century hand.—The text printed below consists of fos. 26–195, Add. MS. 10116. The contemporary pagination used in these footnotes runs continuously through both volumes. Each volume has also been foliated separately in modern times.
page x note 1 I use the spelling, ‘ Rugg ’, as the diarist did in his will; this is also the case in the registers of St. Paul's, Covent Garden. On Rugg's family connexions the Diurnal has no clues, except a reference to a Thomas Lewger as a brother (see below, p. 88). Walter Rye suggested that the diarist may have been Thomas Rugg of Felmingham, who in 1608 married Bridget Pennell, or Thomas Rugg who in 1666 mortgaged Northrepps and Hardingham to the Lord Mayor of London, and who died without issue. Neither can be accepted, since we know that Rugg left children and that his will makes no mention of real property. Norfolk Families (Norwich, 1911–13), p. 757Google ScholarPubMed.

page xii note 5 Rugg does not date the making of an entry. His dates refer to the events he is chronicling. In this respect he is by no means systematic or precise, for as often as not he contents himself with a mere ‘ then ’ or ‘ at this time ’. Occasionally he inserts dates in the margins.
