Description
These documents consist of a type of written petition and several records of property inheritance given to Jang Mal-son and his family. Jang Mal-son (1431-1486) was a civil official from the reign of King Sejo to that of King Seongjong. There are 18 items in 5 types, and all the documents have been held by the descendants of the Jang Family. These ancient documents include the petition made in 1385 (11th year of the reign of King U of the Goryeo Dynasty) by Jang Jeon, who was a great-grandfather of Jang Mal-son, records of property inheritance, and records of runaway slaves. All the documents come in different sizes, and they are valuable materials in the study of social, economic, and institutional bases of the period. They are also important in identifying the form of petitions and wills in late Goryeo and early Joseon.
