Jane Stonor to [Thomas] Stonor

106. JANE STONOR TO [THOMAS] STONOR

 [c 1470]

     In spite of the address this would seem to be written by Jane Stonor to
her husband. Lord Morley was William Lovell (uncle of Francis, Viscount
Lovell) who married Alianore Morley before 1466, and was summoned to
Parliament in her right from 10 August, 1469, to 15 October, 1471. The
reference to "the chelder " would suggest a rather earlier date than 1470, and
William Lovell probably used the title from the time of his marriage; he is
styled "Willelmus Lovell, dominus Morley" ap. Placita de Banco, Roll 820,
m. 64, in Trinity Term, 1466. From A.C., xlvi, 249.

    Syr, I recommande me unto yow as lowly as I cane: pleseyt yow to
