English Deeds Collection: "The Deeds Collection of the Harvard Law School Library is a rich and diverse body of over 1,000 English legal documents dating from circa 1170 to 1888." Unfortunately, you cannot view the deeds online, but you can get summary information about them, the names listed on the deed, their dates, the subjects covered and their location in the library in case you want to go and see them in person.

History in Deed: Medieval Society & the Law in England, 1100-1600: This site presents the translated texts of 157 different charters from the holdings of the Harvard Law School Library. They span the period between 1100 and 1600. The charters are grouped into sections such as Law & Society, Seals, the Washfield Saga: Land Tenurer, Family History in Devon: 1275-1800, and others. Unfortunately the site does not give the illustrations nor the original Latin text of these charters. It is still very interesting to look through.
