My dad is Professor J.J.N. Palmer, and I worked with him on the Domesday Book data used and cited in this work.

These days we are used to having all kinds of data at our fingertips, but at the time it was a lot of work to take medieval Latin and turn it into computer readable data. We had to invent our own markup language, parsers and search engines.
