Exemplification of the record of a case at Common Beach in Easter term 19 Elizabeth .

Place: Shropshire Archives

System Reference: XMO/1037/5/31

Document Reference: 1037/5/31

Date: 12 Feb 1579

Level: file

Description: 12 February 21 Elizabeth

Peter Brese clerk and Thomas Burnell to answer Henry Cloughe who claims the right to present a suitable person to the parish church of Moore which is vacant.

Henry, by William Nielson his attorney, says that Queen Mary was seized of the advowson and presented William Elkes clerk, who was admitted. After he death, the present Queen became entitled to the advowson and on 24 July 12 Elizabeth by letters patent which Henry produces in court, granted to William James and John Graye the said advowson to hold to them and their heirs for ever.

On 14 December 14 Elizabeth at Ludlowe, by a certain writing which Henry also produces, they granted the advowson to Henry and his heirs for ever. The living is vacant by the death of William Elkes and remains vacant because Peter and Thomas prevent him from making a presentation - damage 40

Peter Brese and Thomas Burnell by John Lutwiche their attorney defend the case. Peter sayd that he is the parson and before the said Queen had any right, a certain >>> Peter Hyggyns <<< was seized of 3 parts of the manor of More into 4 parts divided and on a vacancy he presented Peter Brese clerk who was admitted temp. Henry VIII. Afterwards the church became vacant by the deprivation of Brese on sentence in the time of Queen Mary because he married, and the Queen on account of a lapse presented William Elkes clerk and he was admitted Peter say that the sentence of deprivation was declared void on 9 October 1559 by Richard Davids professor of Theology and Rouland Merygg professor of Law and Richard Pater, the Queen's Visitors and Commissioners General with authority to visit all churches etc in the dioceses of Llandaff, Bangor, St Asaph, Hereford, and Worcester: and Peter was restored to the said church and this he can prove.

Burnell says that Henry Clough has no action against him because before the late Queen had any claim to the advowson, >>> Peter Hyggyns <<< was seized of the said 3 parts of the manor of Moore to which the advowson belongs and presented Brese. Hyggins enfeoffed Thomas More in the said 3/4 of the manor and advowson: More enfeoffed William Jones, who enfeoffed Richard his son and heir, and he enfeoffed John More who enfeoffed Thomas Burnell - Queen Mary was never seized.

After various adjournments, the parties appeared before the Justices at Assizes in co Salop.

Jury - >>> Charles Hybbyns gentleman <<<, John Medlicote yeoman, John Podmore yeoman , John Snede yeoman and Richard Crowther yeoman objected to.

New jury summoned - Robert Gennowe yeoman, John Yoppe yeoman, Richard Witherley gentleman, Robert Streford yeoman, John Bente yeoman, John Doode yeoman, Roger ap Jevan gentleman, Roger Goughe yeoman, Leonard Hotchkies yeoman: but Henry Cloughe did not appear so the case was dismissed sine die

Exemplification at request of Peter and Thomas.

Note: Temp. Henry VIII presentation. That means before 28 Jan 1547, which would make Peter about 42 when he was seized with the 3 parts of the manor. Hyggyns is a very likely scribal renderying or redying of a version of Hotchkiss. This is the only Charles known at the time and as the first son of a first son of William Hotchkiss / Hoskins, burgess and pannarius of Salop, Hawk of Byllwas [abt 1475 - abt 1545], he is very likely to own land in Shropshire and have obligations for things like this jury.

Note: This document refers exactly to the parish of More in the southwest Shropshire hills near the Welsh border.

1. Geographic Proximity: The document mentions the Assizes in co Salop and the town of Ludlow, which is the historic administrative center for south Shropshire, roughly 18 miles from the parish of More.

2. The "More" Manor Ownership: The text identifies Peter Hyggyns as being seized of "3 parts of the manor of More" and eventually enfeoffing Thomas More. This confirms the manor’s identity, as the More family were the primary landowners of this specific western parish for centuries.

3. Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction: The document refers to a 1559 visit by commissioners to the diocese of Hereford, which is the specific diocese that historically encompassed the parish of More.

Historical "Moore" Spelling: The document uses the spelling "Moore," which was common in the 16th century for the location now modernly known as More.

Oxted, Surrey manor

The manor of Oxted was purchased in 1597 or 1598 by Charles Hoskins, a merchant taylor of London, who was Sir Edmund Hoskins' grandfather. In his will this Charles Hoskins describes himself as "gentleman, of Oxted, in the county of Surrey." Edmund himself was born in this property, which his father, Sir Thomas Hoskins, had inherited as the eldest son from his father. The Oxted property was passed on to Charles Hoskins, Sir Edmund’s elder brother. This Charles is reported to have married Anne Hales of King’s Walden, Hertfordshire, and to have had nine children, the eldest surviving being William Hoskins. She predeceased him.

-

A presumed brother of Anne Hales, John Hale, later Sir John Hale, of Paulswalden, Herts, gent., appears in the family documentation at the Surrey archives, for example in 1646[14] and in 1668.[15].

-

It can be seen from connected documentation that Charles eldest son, William Hoskins, later became Sir William Hoskins in 1683, having been appointed Deputy Lieutenant of Surrey in 1675 . At least two of Charles sons were involved in the practice of law - "John Hoskins of the Inner Temple, gent." , "Thomas Hoskins, gent, servant to James Sherman of Clifford's Inn, gent" ,

-

Charles, Sir Edmund Hoskins' elder brother, built up the Oxted estate through the purchase of the Barrow Green estate in Oxted in 1650. The records of this estate and of the Hoskins family are in the Surrey History Centre archives. Late seventeenth century maps of both the Surrey and Kent lands of the Hoskins are available at the SHC archives.
