Will of Thomas Stonor

 137. WILL OF THOMAS STONOR

1474

    This is an imperfect draft or copy of the Will. The date must be later
than 8 October, 1468, since Richard Drayton is dead. Apparently all Stonor's
daughters were unmarried, so the date must be before the marriage of one of
them to John Cottesmore (see Nos. 110 and 128). The date of that marriage
was therefore probably not before 1470. The will may be compared with the
Arbitrament between William Stonor and his mother, No. 157. See further
vol. ii., p. 184. From Ch. Misc., 37, ix, 22.
