Description:Excerpt from LinlithgowshireThe original meaning of the word county is a province governed by a count, and it is derived from Latin through French. In France a county was the portion of land which a man held by force of arms and by the consent of the people. Gradually such minor divisions of a country became permanent areas for administrative pur poses. The word skin is of English origin, but its primitive meaning is disputed. The common View is that it means a piece of land shorn or separated from the rest by the king, who delegated a portion of his power to local governors. The best authorities, how ever, consider that the word means employment or care, for there is no record of any deliberate partition of the country. It is, in fact, natural to imagine that existing divisions such as parishes or thanages were combined or arranged in manageable groups, and that therefore Shires came into existence by an act of union, not by an act of separation.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
