Papists Act 1722
The Papists Act 1722 was an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain, enacted after the discovery of the Jacobite Atterbury Plot. The Act required landowners to take the oaths of allegiance, supremacy, and abjuration, by 25 December 1723; those who declined were to register their estates by 25 March 1723. If they failed to do so they risked forfeiting their estates. It was repealed by the Papists Act 1723.
