                           SURVEY OF THE
                              MANOR OF
                             BRINKWORTH

                                1587




       Document held at the Wiltshire County Record Office,

This survey was commissioned  by the then Lord of the  Manor, Thomas
Howard Earl  of Suffolk, so that he  would be in  a position to sell
the Manor if the  need should arise.  This much can be  gleaned from
the preamble which appears on the following page.

The  paragraph  numbers  have  been  added  by  the  translator  for
purposes of clarification and indexing.   They do not appear in  the
original document.

Most christian names in  the original document have been recorded in
their Latin form.   In this  translation the Latin  names have  been
given  with  their  English equivalents  in  square  brackets,  e.g.
"Johannes [John] Smith".  Note that the Latin name "Jacobus" can  be
translated either as "Jacob" or "James".

Above some  of the names  in the original  document the  word "mort"
has  been written.   Perhaps  the  survey was  kept as  a  "working"
document for a few  years after its commission, and this would  be a
way of noting  that a person had since  died.  When  this annotation
took place (if indeed it was only the once) it is not  known.  As an
indication, the will of James  Taylor (or James Davis  alias Taylor)
was  proved at the  PCC in  1597.   In paragraph  52 he is  noted as
dead, although in paragraphs 1 and 70 he is not.

=============================================================
======

Dates  in the original document were given  in terms of regnal years
(e.g. "21st  day of September in the  3rd year of  the reign of King
Edward the Sixth").  In this translation the editor has  entered the
year number in square brackets  (e.g. "[1549]") in order  to improve
readability and ease of use.   Notes that have clearly been added to
the document after it was first written are in italics.

Dotted lines (" ....  ") indicate words which were either unreadable
or which could not  be translated.   A question mark ("?")  has been
place after  any word where a translation has been attempted but not
with total certainty.
