A Blacklist is a list that names those who have broken laws or other agreements and codes. This is associated to Henry's Black Book but once a list was compiled, names were neither added nor removed as they might be in a running book. The first Blacklist was put together in the 1660s after Charles II was crowned King. The Restoration Parliament had a list of names drawn up of all those to be held responsible for the trial and execution of his father, Charles I, in 1649. All those on the list were ruthlessly hunted down and were to be publicly executed in an act of revenge. However, the new King was opposed to the bloodshed and fought, unsuccessfully in most cases, for clemency. However, in the end only nine of the original 60 names on the blacklist were publicly slaughtered.
