- "The index provides for the very first time the most comprehensive index to the documents of the twenty parishes that comprise the Hundred deposited at the Centre for Kentish Studies. This involved the monumental labour of turning every single page of their unofficial catalogues. The whole index has been arranged under place and date in six columns giving the Archive, the archive reference, the main parish, a description of the document, the number of documents and the dates. The index will be an indispensable tool for local and family historians as it includes many deeds, family and estate papers and even a few wills"

- The coloured dust jacket is based on a surviving 1608 map of the oyster fishery
- "The first controlled fishery is heard of in the area of Seasalter, in a charter granted by Offa, king of Mercia, in 785 where a fish weir is mentioned. At the Conquest Faversham, Whitstable and Milton were all fisheries that were then royal manors, perhaps controlled by the crown, perhaps not. Our researches have shown that there is no doubt that King Stephen, in founding the abbey at Faversham in 1147 by granting them the manor and hundred of Faversham, founded the oyster fishery company. It may have been based on arrangements made when Faversham had been a royal manor, but we have no proof one way or the other.
Like so many businesses the records of The Company and Fraternity of Freefishermen and Dredgermen of Faversham and the eventual formation of the Faversham Oyster Fishery Company Ltd. in 1930 have left no complete archive. Despite this, through diligent research in many archives, we have been able to build up a comprehensive account. Twenty-five appendices, arranged in chronological order, provide transcripts of some of the more important documents and include lists of members taken from a variety of records. Comprehensive name and place indexes enable individuals to be easily located in these records"[1]
