Transcriber's notes
The Hammermen include a number of different crafts, all of which involved working with a hammer on metal. The Seal of Cause names blacksmiths, goldsmiths, lorimers, saddlers, cutlets, buclar makers, armourers "and all vtharis within the said burgh of Edinburgh". Pewterers and locksmiths were also included from an early date and gradually crafts of more recent origin, such as that of the clock and watch maker, were added as they arose, until some 18 principal disciplines were included.

Scottish Exchequer (Tax Records)
The Scottish Exchequer, and subsequently the Court of Exchequer, were concerned with the accounting of collected taxes in Scotland. These taxes include the Carriage tax (1785-1798), Cart tax (1785-1798), Clock and watch tax (1797-1798), Dog tax (1797-1798), Farm horse tax (1797-1798), Servant tax (1777-1798), Hearth tax (1691-1695), Horse tax (1785-1798), Inhabited house tax (1778-1798), Land tax (1645-1831), Poll tax (1694-1698), Shop tax (1785-1789), Window tax (1748-1798). Following the Consolidating Acts (38 Geo. III cap. 40 and 41), the duties on windows, inhabited houses, male servants, carts, carriages and dogs were incorporated in Consolidated Schedules of Assessed Taxes (1798-1799).
