2 ARTHUR THROGKMORTON, Mil.]
He was son to that eminent Knight, Sir Nicholas Throgkmorton, (of whom in VVar∣wick▪ shire) and his Sister was married to Sir VValter Raleigh. This Sir Arthur was a most ingenious Gentleman, and dying without Issue-male, his large estate was parted amongst his four daughters married to the Lord Dacres, the Lord VVotton, Sir Peter Temple of Stow Baronet, and Sir Edward Partridge.
3 JOHN FREEMAN, Arm.]
He died without Issue, and was a most bountiful Benefactour to Clare▪ hall in Cam∣bridge, giving two thousand pounds to the founding of Fellowships, and Scholarships therein.
12 WILLIAM WILLMER, Arm.]
He was the first Pensioner, as Doctor James Mountague the first Master, and Sir John Brewerton first Scholar of the House in Sidney-colledge, being all three of them, (but in several proportions) Benefactours to that Foundation.
22 WILLIAM CHAUNCY, Mil.]
These have been very (but I know not how) antient in this County, but far antien∣ter in Yorkshire. For I meet with this Inscriptiou on a Monument at Sabridgeworth in Hertfordshire.
Hic jacent Johannes Chancy, Ar. filius & heres Johannis Chancy, Ar. filii & heredis Willielmi Chancy, Mil. quondam Baronis de Shorpenbek in Com. Ebor. & Anna uxor ejus una filiarum Johannis Leventhorpe, Ar. qui quidem Johan∣nes obiit VII. Maii MCCCCLXXIX. & Annaii Decemb. MCCCCLXXVII. quorum animabus.
It appeareth to me by a well proved pedegree, that Henry Chancy Esq. of Yardlebury in Hertfordshire, is the direct descendant from the aforesaid John Chancy, whose Epitaph we have inserted.
