REMEMBRANCER

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 81 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RAY-RHU
REMEMBRANCER , the name originally of certain subordinate
officers
  of the English
Exchequer
 . The office itself is of
great
  antiquity, the holder having been termed remembrancer, memorator, rememorator, registrar, keeper of the
register
 , despatcher of business (Maddox, History of the
Exchequer
 ). There were at one time three clerks of the remembrance, styled king's remembrancer, lord treasurer's remembrancer and remembrancer of first-fruits. The latter two offices have become
extinct
 , that of remembrancer of first-fruits by the diversion of the fund (Queen Anne's
Bounty
  Act 1838), and that of lord treasurer's remembrancer on being merged in the office of king's remembrancer (1833). By the Queen's Remembrancer Act 1859 the office ceased to exist separately, and the queen's remembrancer was required to be a master of the
court
  of exchequer. The Judicature Act 1873, s. 77, attached the office to the Supreme
Court
 , and the Supreme Court of Judicature (
Officers
 ) Act 1879 transferred it to the central office of the Supreme Court. By s. 8 the king's remembrancer is a master of the Supreme Court, and the office is usually filled by the senior master. The king's remembrancer department of the central office is now amalgamated with the judgments and married women's acknowledgments department. The king'sremembrancer still assists at certain ceremonial functionsrelics of the former importance of the officesuch as the nomination of sheriffs, the swearing-in of the lord mayor of London, the trial of the pyx and the acknowledgments of homage for crown lands. Other duties are set out in the Second Report of the Legal Departments Commission, 1894.
" Remembrancer " is also the title of an official of the
corporation
  of the city of London, whose
principal
  duty is to represent that
body
  before parliamentary committees and at council and treasury boards.
