NOTE : the document is written sideways. It is stuck on to fo. io8, which is larger
than the preceding folios and folded back.
Henry de Enfield's will is enrolled, Husting Roll 20 (ii), which is calendared by Sharpe, op. cit., pt. 1, p. 98. Everything before his sister's legacy and after
the mention of his son John is omitted in the enrolment. There are verbal differences between the two copies of the will. |
