page 123 note 1 Some three years ago Mr. A. C. Cole, the present owner of Forncett Manor, most kindly allowed me to examine the Forncett records, and, to facilitate my work, consented to deposit them in the Public Record Office. Through the courtesy of the officials of the Public Record Office I was permitted to consult the rolls there. Mr. Cole has since presented these rolls to the Cambridge University Library, where they now are.
