Notes regarding the data fields

Dates

With respect to the dates provided for the individual events, portions of some dates have been estimated based upon imprecise historical dating (e.g. spring, summer, fall, winter, early in the month, the middle of the month, etc.). In these cases, the dates are shown in red font.

Many of the dates were taken from Wikipedia articles. As of publication of this article in September 2020, the dates of the events in the table are fully consistent with Wikipedia articles associated with the Wars of the Three Kingdoms.

Event locations

Some locations were the site of multiple events during the War of the Three Kingdoms. In those cases a numerical count is provided after the name of the location (e.g. Oxford 1st, Oxford 2nd, etc.). If a location was the site of a single event, no numerical count will be shown. A siege of a location is only counted once and will include appropriate notations (e.g. Siege Starts, Siege Continues, and Siege Ends).

Associated wars

In some cases, an event is associated with multiple wars. In those cases, two fields (Primary and Secondary) will be populated.
