Since this summary list consists mainly of charters, with a smaller number of testaments, papal bulls and other types of document, it is organised according to the names of the key protagonists in the texts, who are listed alphabetically by their Christian names. Unless otherwise stated, the original documents are in Latin. The smaller number that are written in French, from the late thirteenth century onwards, are indicated. While protagonists’ Christian names are anglicised to Andrew, Matilda, James and so on, surnames appear in either their modern French form (e.g. Nicholas de la Commune) or, when a French equivalent for a Latin word could not be found, in the original Latin (e.g. Walter and Robert Goobondi). Each entry provides a summary of the key points within a document, rather than a full translation (or in all cases a full summary). The reference at the foot of each entry denotes the document's location in the Archives départementales de Seine-Maritime, Rouen, the Archives nationales, Paris, or another repository. The majority of the documents are located in the Mont-aux-Malades archive, deposit 25HP in the ADSM, and are referenced as precisely as possible. For example, no. 9 (25HP47(11)(xxii)) is document (xxii) in folder 11 of box 25HP47. I have supplied the folder and document numbers; the box numbers are those ascribed by the ADSM. Since I undertook my research at the ADSM, the material within some boxes has been rearranged. However, my references should still make it possible for an individual document to be located easily within a box. Where relevant, entries also mention publications that provide editions or citations of documents.
