Footnotes

  • 1. No additional evidence has been found for any of these as prebendaries of Portpool.
  • 2. The preb. is not named, but it can be seen to be Portpool by process of elimination.
  • 3. Thomas Boleyn did not die until 1472 (Venn, Alumni Cant. 1174). There are other entries of dubious reliability on the same folio, cf. p. 44 n. 1 and p. 45 n. 1.
