Stokesay Registers.

STOKESAY is a parish and large village, situate on the road from Shrewsbury to Hereford, seven miles north-west from Ludlow, in the hundred of Munslow, rural-deanery and archdeaconry of Ludlow, and diocese of Hereford. The river Onny passes through the parish, entering the Teme at Bromfield. Stokesay comprises the manor of Stokesay, the Domesday manor of Aldon, the hamlets of Newton, Rowton and Wettleton, and the large modern village of Craven Arms, which has sprung into being through the important junction station of the G.W., L. & N.W., and B.C. railways being erected here.

Stokesay is called in Domesday " Stoches," from the Anglo-Saxon Stoc, " a place fenced in." To distinguish it from other Stokes, it was afterwards called South-Stoke, or Stokesay, from the Say family, who were enfeoffed of this manor.

Before Domesday AEldred, a free man, held the manor, which was then worth £10 per annum. At the Conquest, it was given to Walter de Lacy, one of the heroes of Hastings, who endowed Sir Peter's monastery at Hereford with two-thirds of the tithes of this vill. He died in 1085, and was succeeded by his son Roger de Lacy, who held upwards of a hundred manors in various counties. Domesday says that Roger (de Lacy) held Stoches of the King. It was a manor of seven hides. There was arable land sufficient for 14 ox-teams. In demesne there were five teams and sixteen male and female serfs; 20 villeins had eight teams; and there were nine female cottars. There was a mill which rendered nine quarters of corn yearly, with a miller and a keeper of bees.

Early in the twelfth century Roger de Lacy, or his brother Hugh, enfeoffed the Says in this manor, and also in Stoke-upon-Tern (or North Stoke) and Wheathill. About 1174 Hugh de Say gave Stokesay Church to Haughmond Abbey, which grant Hugh de Lacy confirmed a few years later. Soon after 1250 Hugh de Say exchanged his manor of Stoke with John de Verdon, his suzerain, for property in Ireland. John de Verdon had married Margaret de Lacy, daughter and co-heiress of Gilbert de Lacy, and in her right had become chief lord of Stokesay. From Verdon the manor passed to Reginald de Grey, who in 1281, conveyed it to Laurence de Ludlow, who shortly afterwards had a grant of free-warren in his demesnes of Stokesay, Newton, and Wettleton.

In 1291 Lawrence de Ludlow had licence to strengthen his mansion with a wall of stone and lime, and to crenellate or embattle it. He died about 1296, and was succeeded by his son William de Ludlow. At the death of Theobald de Verdon, grandson of John de Verdon, in 1316, it was found that the heirs of Sir William de Ludlow held of the deceased a knight's fee in South Stoke worth £6 per annum. In 1475 William Ludlowe died seised of the manor

Stokesay was held by the Ludlow family for 200 years. In 1497 Thomas Vernon married Anne Ludlowe, daughter and co-heiress of Sir John Ludlowe, and had Stokesay as her portion. His brother, Humphrey Vernon, married Alice Ludlowe, another daughter and co-heiress of Sir John, and received Hodnet as his wife's portion. They were sons of Sir Henry Vernon of Haddon. Leland, who made a tour through England, 1534-43, passed Stokesay on his way from Ludlow to Bishop's Castle, and thus describes it in his Itinerary: " There is a bridge of stone

iv. STOKESAY REGISTERS.

over Oney at Whishter, two miles above Bromfield, and above this Mr. Vernon hath a place not farre from Oney. Almost four [seven] miles from Ludlo, in the way betwixt Ludlo and Bishop's Castle, Stokesay belonging to the Ludlowes, now the Vernons, builded like a castell....Vernon by an heir general is now owner of Stoke." Thomas Vernon was Sheriff in 1524, and at his death was succeeded by his son Thomas Vernon who died in 1570. After his decease Stokesay was sold to Sir George Mainwaring and Sir Arthur Mainwaring, who in 1616 conveyed it to Sir Thomas Baker and Sir Richard Francis. In 1620 it was purchased by Lady Elizabeth Craven, the widow of Sir William Craven, Knight, and daughter of William Whitmore of Apley.

Her son, William Craven, was a distinguished soldier, and in 1627 was raised to the peerage by the title of Baron Craven of Hamsted Marshall, and in 1664-5 was created Earl of Craven. He let Stokesay on a long lease to Charles Baldwyn of Elsich, and died unmarried in 1697. On his death Stokesay passed to his cousin William Craven of Combe Abbey, who became 2nd Baron Craven; and it continued in his descendants until 1869, when the 3rd Earl of Craven sold Stokesay and Onibury to John Derby Alkroft, esq., whose grandson John Russell Alkroft (a minor) is now lord of the manor and owner of the property.

In 1327 the following inhabitants of Stok'Say were assessed to the Subsidy granted that year to the King:- Laurence de Lodelowe, Matilda de Lodelowe, Richard le Vikeries. Adam le Wodeward, William Bene, Richard Faber, William Bene senior, Adam Pyngol, Richard le Sweyn, William Coly, Richard Gylberte, and Richard son of Agnes.

ALDON was held before the Conquest by Siuuard, a freeman, and was worth 105s, per annum. At Domesday it was a small but rich manor, and was held by Roger de Laci of the King. It was only about one-third the size of Stokesay, being a manor of 2½ hides, but there was land sufficient for sixteen teams. In demesne there were two teams, and eight male and female serfs, and twenty-four villeins, two boors and one cottar had eight teams amongst them. There was a mill worth five shillings yearly. Of the land of this manor Richard held one hide and AEldred one member of land. There was one team, and 12 villeins, 7 boors and 3 serfs with three teams. The Church held half a hide, and the priest had a team with one cottar. That part of the manor which (Roger de Lacy) held was worth £8; the men's part 16s., and the priest's part 5s.

In the twelfth century Aldon appears to have been granted by Lacy to some new feoffee. In 1165 it owed the service of half a knight's fee to Hugh de Lacy. In 1255 it belonged to Thomas de Le, Stephen de Smethcot, Thomas Purcel, Richard de Thongland, and John, parson of Bissopeston, who held 2½ hides of Walter de Lacy's heir. In 1284 the parceners were John Purcel, John de Lee, Reginald Scot and Isabella his wife, and Gilbert de Lacy and Agnes his wife. I am not able further to carry on the mediaeval descent of this manor.

In 1327 Ralph de Euldon (Aldon), Walter Tope, William le Theyn, Walter Godman, Richard son of Philip, Richard Edwyn, William de Auentre, and John de Palyngham were assessed to the subsidy which was granted to Edward III. to meet the expenses of the Scotch War.

Aldon had a Church and a priest at Domesday, but the Church was transferred in the 12th century to Stokesay as the most important vill, whilst a Chapel or Chantry remained at Aldon, with some land attached. In 1317, a Commission was issued, at the request of William de Davyntre and nine other residents in Aldon, to ascertain the liability of the Vicar of Stokesay to maintain a Chantry in Aldon Chapel; and it was ordained that the Vicar should provide a Chaplain to celebrate Mass thrice weekly in Aldon Chapel, but all churchings, marriages, etc., were

to be at the Mother Church of Stokesay. In 1541-2, Haughmond Abbey had a rent of 6s. 8d. issuing from Aldon; but the Chapel had probably long before this been disused.

Aldon Court was long the residence and property of the Baugh family. In 1661, Henry Baugh of Aldon, gent., contributed £3 to the Free and Voluntary present to Charles II. Their pedigree was entered at the Visitation of Shropshire in 1623, and they resided at Alden Court until the 18th century, when the family moved to the Stone House. The old Aldon Court was pulled down, and a new house erected some little distance away by the Earl of Powis, from whose family it passed to Mr. J. D. Allcroft.

There were three chief farms at Aldon. One, called the Upper House, belonged to the Lysters of Rowton Castle, and was tenanted by Samuel Hotchkiss. The second, called the Lower House, belonged to Lord Powis, and since to the Lysters. These two farms were sold by Lord Rowton to Mr. J. D. Allcroft. The third farm belonged to the Hotchkiss family, and also a farm at Views Edge with the old lime-works there. In 1841 the population of Aldon was 236. A number of very large deer's antlers were dug up many years ago in the lime works near Aldon.

WEO, or Yeo (formerly Weho) is in the township of Aldon. In 1255 Weho was held of Walter de Lacy's heir by five co-parceners; but half a hide there was held by Walter de Hopton of John Fitz Alan. Luke de Weho occurs as witness to a deed in the Haughmond Chartulary; and William de Weho paid a rent of 8d. to the Abbey. At Weo, says Hardwicke, " there stood of late years the ancient interesting mansion of the Hibbins family, and much larger than the great house at Alcaston." Weo came to the Hibbins family by marriage with Isabella Pardy, an heiress, the great grand-daughter of Robert Pardy, who was living at Weo in 1412. Thomas Hibbins of Weo and Rowton entered his pedigree at the Visitation of 1623. From the Hibbinses Weo passed to the Onians family, partly by descent and partly by purchase. John Onians sold it to the Rev. Thomas James Rocke, Curate of Diddlebury. From the Rockes it came by purchase to the McNabs. Captain McNab is the present owner. Weo is now a large farm-house, of considerable elevation, and covered with white stucco.

Stepaside belonged to Mr. Job Walker Baugh, who sold it to Lord Powis, and it was purchased by Mr. Allcroft from Colonel Clive.

NEWTON, in ancient times, belonged to the de Says, and the Haughmond Chartulary contains eight grants by Hugh de Say, William Dun de Newton, and Roger Wixi, to Haughmond Abbey, of lands in Newton. Amongst the lands named are Hadleesfelde in le Nethercrofte, near the road from Stoke to Sibdon, le Whetefelde, Brodemaresfelde, etc. In 1320, Roger Dun, William his son, and John his brother, occur as tenants to the Abbey of lands in Newton. Hardwicke's MSS. state that the village of Newton " consists of four farms, to which are attached half-timbered dwellings of great antiquity "; three of these belonged to the Earl of Craven, and the fourth was formerly the property of the family of Howells, from which it passed by Elizabeth, an heiress, 20 May, 1662, in marriage with Thomas Woolley into that family, and afterwards by will to Edward Oldnall of Worcester. The acreage of Newton is 395A. 3R. 10P. Lord Craven still owns the Craven Arms Hotel and farm. The Woolleys owned the land on which the business part of Craven Arms is built. Part of Newton was purchased in 1869 by Mr. J. D. Allcroft.

WETTLETON belonged formerly to the Earl of Craven, and a portion to the Baldwyns, but was purchased in 1869 by Mr. Allcroft, and forms part of the Stokesay Court estate. Hardwicke's MSS. give the acreage of

vi. STOKESAY REGISTERS.

Wettleton as 718A. 3R. 10P. In 1841 there were 114 inhabitants. Elias de Say granted the mill of Stokes and Wetlington for 23 marks of silver to Haughmond Abbey, and Walter de Say granted a marsh called Penckeresmedewe near the said mill.

ROWTON was anciently held by the family of de Hauborchin under John Fitz Alan. It was variously spelt Ruton, Rutone and Rowton, named also Ruton Pyards, otherwise Rowton Salters and Stokeing. In 1256 Ivor de Rowton occurs, and in 1292 Lucas de Rowton. The hamlet now consists of two farms in Stokesay parish, and one farm in Clungunford. It was formerly the estate of the Rowton family, who resided here until 1611. It afterwards became the property successively of the Hibbins and Onians families. Of the farms in Stokesay, Richard Onians owned one, which afterwards passed to Archdeacon Spooner, and since to Francis Bache, whose descendants still own it. The other farm came to Mr. Turner of Welshpool, and afterwards to the Beddoes family, and Mr. Dervis Beddoes is the present owner. In 1841 there were 18 inhabitants of Rowton in Stokesay parish and 15 in Clungunford. [1]

STOKESAY COURT, the residence of the Allcrofts, was erected in 1887 to the westward of a residence now demolished, known as the Stone House, which belonged to the Baldwyns, and afterwards to the Baughs, but was sold to the Earl of Powis, who greatly enlarged it and occasionally resided here. The Stone House was purchased about 1869 by Mr. John Derby Allcroft. The Stokesay Court property is of considerable extent, and comprises Stokesay Castle, Stoke Wood, Wettleton, Aldon, Newton, Onibury, Stepaside, Burley, Walton, and Duxmoor, in the parishes of Stokesay, Onibury, and Culmington.

The population has steadily increased since the census of 1801, when it was 512. In 1841, it was 556. In 1881, it was 744; in 1891, 942; in 1901, 1,006; and in 1911, 1,142. The area of the whole parish is 3,661 acres. Stokesay hamlet alone (inclusive of Stoke Wood) comprises 804A. 1R. 10P.

STOKESAY CASTLE.

The castle, or fortified mansion of Stokesay, is described by Mr. Hudson Turner as " one of the most perfect and interesting thirteenth century buildings we possess, and it deserves a much more careful examination of the uses of its parts than it as yet received." It has been fully described by the Rev. J. D. la Touche in the Shropshire Archaeological Society's Transactions, volume I., pages 311-322, to which reference should be made. The southern tower was erected by Laurence de Ludlow, who, on 19 October, 1291, had a licence from Edward I. to fortify and crenellate his mansion of Stoke Say. The hall was built at an earlier date, probably by John de Verdon, who came into possession of Stokesay in 1240; it is 53 feet in length and 31 feet in breadth, and its height is 34 feet. The Court measures 530 by 70 feet, and it is entered by a gatehouse of rich Elizabethan timber work. The whole is surrounded by a moat twenty-two feet wide. The castle was visited by Bishop Swinfield and his retinue in April, 1290.

During the Civil War, the castle was held by Sir Samuel Baldwyn, and was garrisoned for the King, Captain Dannett being appointed governor. In 1645 it was surrendered to the parliamentarians, and garrisoned by them, and this surrender no doubt saved it from destruction. A month later there was an engagement at Wettleton, which resulted in the defeat of the royalists. After the Civil War, Stokesay Castle was ordered to be slighted, but apparently only the battlements of the

northern tower and the curtain walls above the moat were removed. Sir Samuel Baldwyn probably built the timber rooms on what remained of the northern tower. Later the castle became a mere outbuilding of a neighbouring farm-house, and was suffered to fall into decay. But about sixty years ago, Lord Craven had it repaired; and when Mr. Allcroft became the owner, he, at great expense and with much judgment, had it very carefully restored. Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Allcroft have since his time made further repairs.

THE CHURCH.

There is no mention of a Church in Domesday, but there was one at Aldon, which was afterwards transferred to Stokesay, as the most important place. There is evidence of a Church existing here in the 12th century. About 1174, Hugh de Say granted the Church of " St. John of Suthestokes " to Haughmond Abbey. Hugh de Lacy confirmed this grant, and speaks of the Church as dedicated to St. John the Baptist. It was also confirmed by Pope Honorius, by the Archbishop of Canterbury, and by three Bishops of Hereford. Some tithes of Stokesay were also granted to Gloucester Abbey and transferred by that House to Bromfield Priory; and in the thirteenth century some other parts of the tithes were granted to Wenlock Priory, and to Llanthony Priory.

The original Church was partially destroyed during the siege of Stokesay Castle. In 1654, the nave was rebuilt, as appears from an inscription over the tower arch:- " An: Dom: 1654. This church was rebuilt by the pious oversight of George Powell, gent: and George Lambe, Chvrchwardens." The old South Door, which is Norman, was retained. It is doubtful whether the Chancel was rebuilt, for it contains a good deal of 14th century work, and two square-beaded perpendicular windows. It was, however, repaired in 1664, ten years after the nave was rebuilt. There is a plain south porch, and an embattled western tower with six bells. At the entrance to the chancel is a handsome large covered pew, panelled and moulded in the style of the Restoration period. The font is plain and circular, and is probably of the 17th century, according to Dr. Cranage, though it is often thought to be far more ancient. [1]

The Inventory of Bells and Plate returned in the reign of Edward VI. is as follows:-" STOKESAY, oon chalys of sylver with a patent and too grett bell of on' accord."

The certificate of the lands, tenements and rents given to finding or maintaining any obit, light or lamp in the several parishes contains the following reference to Stokesay:-

" The parishe off Stokesaye.

" Certain lands within the sayd parishe off Stokesaye heretofore geuen to the mayntenaunce off certen lyghtis ther ffor euer by yere . . . iijd."

There are six bells in the tower. The 1st, 2nd and 4th bells were cast by T. Mears, of London, in 1822; the 3rd and 5th by Henry Clibury, in 1674; and the 6th was cast in 1608, but re-cast in 1900, when the whole peal was re-hung. It bore the name of " S GEORG MANWERING " (Sir George Mainwaring, of Stoke Castle), with the initials (I.N., W.B.) of the then churchwardens. The full inscriptions on these bells, with a number of extracts from the Churchwardens' Accounts, are given in the Shropshire Archaeological Society's Transactions, 3 S., IV., pp. 78-84.

In the same Transactions, 4 S., II., pp. 315-317, is " A true copy of the account of seats in Stokesay Church as agreed to and settled by all the Parishioners, Anno 1654 "; and a note about the allocation of seats on 2 September, 1658, after the Church had been burnt down in the late calamitous times.

The old Stokesay Vicarage House is still standing. It is a fine old timbered dwelling, and is situate at Newton. Opposite to it are the remains of the old Lion Inn, which was disused as an Inn when the new Stokesay Castle Hotel was built. The present Vicarage was erected in 1839-40, the Rev. Thomas Dixon having obtained from Q.A.B. a grant of £641 for the purpose.

Richard Clericus de Stokesay was ordained acolyte on 21st May, 1334, and John de Stokesay subdeacon on 17th March, 1346-7. The Suffragan Bishop of Commagene ordained two acolytes at Stokesay on 9th June, 1372. On 27th April, 1290, Bishop Swinfield visited Stokesay, and the Household Roll contains a number of details about his visit.

When Presbyteries were established in each County in 1646, Stokesay was placed in the Fifth Classical Presbytery of Shropshire; but we have no record of the Ministers during the Commonwealth period.

The Patronage of the Church belonged to the Abbot and Convent of Haughmond until 1543, in which year Roger Haywarde and John Wydden, as grantees of the Abbey property, presented. In 1554 Rowland Ludlowe was Patron, and it continued in his family until about 1620, when it passed to the Hibbins family, who held it nearly 200 years. From the Hibbins family the advowson passed by descent to Robert Smallman (son of John Lambe Smallman and Lucretia his wife, who was cousin and heir of Frederick George Hibbins), who, on 25th March, 1797, sold it to John Onians. On 24th June, 1803, it was purchased by William Smith. On 25th March, 1813, Francis Marston purchased the advowson, and in 1829 it passed under the will of his brother James Marston to Richard Marston (his son), who sold it on 15th October, 1847, to his brother-in-law, the Rev. Thomas Donkin of Romford, Essex. Mr. Donkin conveyed the advowson on 26th February, 1851, to the Rev. Thomas Digges La Touche, in trust for his son the Rev. James Digges La Touche, on whose death in 1899 it passed to his son, the Rev. William Martin Digues La Touche, the present patron.

Stokesay was a living discharged from the payment of First Fruits, and valued at £40 in the King's Books. The yearly Tenths were 9s. 4d.; Procurations and Synodals 7s. 8d.; and 17s. 9d. was payable at the Bishop's Visitation. (Ecton' s Thesaurus).

CHARITIES.

The Charity Commissioners' Report for Shropshire, 1840, page 412; mentions these two Charities:-

xii. STOKESAY REGISTERS.

POWELL'S CHARITY. Roger Powell, who died 6th August, 1616, left by Will £10 a year, chargeable on an estate in Churchstoke and Lydham, viz: one shilling a week to the poor, and £7 8s. towards the maintenance of a schoolmaster, to teach poor men's children of the parish. The master used to keep school in the Church belfry, and taught the children for a penny a week, his salary being made up to £10 a year by the parish. Roger Powell's Will was proved in P.C.C. in 1616. (86 Cope.)

PIERCE'S CHARITY. Mary Pierce, 18th May, 1769, bequeathed £5 to the poor. £4 5s. 7d. of this was spent in the purchase of a bier cloth, and the remainder in books. The Churchwardens gave 5s. annually in Bibles, etc., to poor children.

THE REGISTERS.

The Parish Register Abstract of 1831 contains this information about the Registers:

" STOKESAY V. No. I. Bap., Bur., Marr., 1558-1642. No. II. Bap., Bur., 1729-1797; Marr., 1729-1753. No. III., Bap., Bur., 1798-1812. Nos. IV., V., Marr., 1754-1812." This account is accurate, but No. IV. extends from 1754 to 1792, and No. V. from 1793 to 1812. There is also a Churchwardens' Account Book extending from 1663 to 1714.

Volume I., which extends from 6th February, 1558-9 to 3rd November, 1642, with two later entries in 1652 and 1654 of the Lambe family, is a book of 30 parchment leaves in a vellum cover, 12¼ by 5½ inches. It is a copy of an earlier Register to about 1600, well written, but by a shocking Latinist. After 1600, in various hands. The entries are all in Latin. Some leaves are missing for the years 1620 to 1631. At the end of the volume is " A levy or leawne cessed by the Churchwardens," etc., 6th May, 1636. The most important families named in this volume are Vernon (against the names a cross is inserted), Baldwyn (with a circle prefixed to their entries), Baugh, and Hibbins (usually styled " gentleman ").

The Registers are missing from 1642 to 1729. The Rev. J. D. La Touche has, however, made a transcript of the Bishop's Registers at Hereford for the period 1662 to 1726, except for the years 1672, 1708, 1721, 1727, and 1728; and we must feel very grateful to him for this transcript. Sometimes he had some difficulty in deciphering the names, as is evident from the blanks and [?] in his copy. Of late years the Transcripts at Hereford have been cleaned, and arranged by the Rev. F. C. Norton, and it would be desirable to collate this print (pages 32 to 66) with the re- arranged Bishop's Transcripts. The missing years might be found, and the blanks filled in.

Volume II. extends from 1729 to 1797, and contains thirty-two parchment leaves, 11 by 7 inches, in boards covered with parchment. This Register was purchased by the Churchwardens in March, 1728, and cost nine shillings. It is well written, in various hands, chiefly by the Clergy. The Vicar or Curate usually signs each year, and the Churchwardens' names are given. There are also statistics of the number of baptisms, burials, and weddings each year. Marriages are generally entered in this Register, as well as in the separate Marriage Register after 1754. The principal families are Baugh (termed " esquire "), Pountney (styled " gentleman "), and Littleton and Price, which have " Mr." prefixed.

Volume III. contains baptisms and burials from 1798 to 1812, and some marriage entries. It contains 14 parchment leaves written on, measuring 11 by 7 inches, in a stiff parchment cover, lettered " Stokesay, 1798-1812." Many blank leaves have been cut out, at the end of the book. It is well written, by Francis Marston, Curate to 1810 and then

STOKESAY REGISTERS. xiii.

Vicar. The Churchwardens' names are usually given to 1804. There are no important names in this volume. In 1806, " Mrs. Ann Bright of Rowton " was buried.

Volume IV. contains Banns and Marriages from 1754 to 1792. There is a printed title page, and a specimen form, but the entries are all written. It contains 80 paper leaves, 9½ by 7 inches, in a parchment cover.

Volume V. is a paper book, 14½ inches by 9½ inches, in a brown leather cover, on which is written " Marriages 1793-1812, Stokesay." There is a printed title page, and directions as to levying a duty of Threepence on every Burial, Marriage, or Christening. It was " Printed by James Smith, Newcastle, 1784." There are 66 marriages to 1812, and 40 Banns from 1813 to 1822, four entries on each page, all filled up by F. Marston, Curate.

Volume VI. contains Marriages from 1813 to 1837. It is one of Eyre and Strahan's Registers, and contains 300 forms, three on each page. Only 108 are filled up; the rest of the book is blank. It is a paper book, 15½ by 11 inches, in a vellum cover. It should be noted that in 84 of these entries, one or both of the parties (usually both) signed by a mark.

The Register of Baptisms, 1813-1837, contains entries of 438 baptisms, and the Register of Burials for the same period shows that there were 305 burials. These volumes are not printed here.

It remains only to add that Volume II. was transcribed by Mr. T. R. Horton, and all the other volumes by the Rev. W. G. D. Fletcher, who has collated the proof-sheets, as they passed through the press, with the original Registers. They are now printed with the permission of the Rev. A. M. Winter, the present Vicar of Stokesay, and for their publication the Society is indebted to a generous donation from Mrs Baldwyn-Childe.

Stokesay Registers.

The following extracts from the Bishop's Transcripts preserved at
Hereford, for the years 1708, 1721, 1727, and 1728, have been kindly
supplied by the Rev. F. C. Norton, from his copy of the Transcripts of
all lost Registers of South Shropshire from the year 1660*. Those for the
years 1660, 1661, and 1709 were copied by the Rev. W. G. D. Fletcher from
the original Transcripts at Hereford. The CORRIGENDA which follows is the
result of a comparison by Mr. Fletcher of the printed copy of the
Transcripts (pages 32 to 66) with the originals preserved at Hereford.
These additional Transcripts and Corrigenda complete the Register of
Stokesay.
