Footnotes

  • 1. Marginal note in Inst. AB 2 ii f. 12: 'prebenda de Tockerington per eundem magistrum Jo: xxmo Maii'. Presumably this note relates to the instit. of Blake. It is surrounded by entries for 1562. Master Jo: is probably master Walter Jones, abp. Young's vicar-general.
  • 2. Given by Le Neve-Hardy in error as John Wotton.
  • 3. 20 Oct., given by the Gent. Mag. 1754, xxiv 484, is very improbable in view of the date of his successor's coll.
