Notes

Note 1

!Note: Gyffer Hotchkiss died in November 1538, and the muster roll is dated 1539 — but it likely reflects names compiled in late 1538 or early 1539 before updates. Since the muster listed tithings by obligation, even the recently deceased could appear, especially if rolls hadn’t been refreshed.
