Comment | fo 481*[The inst of Ellis Benfield not known to register.
Last recorded inst was of Giles (Egidii) Kelsey on12 Jan1553/4, fo. 448r. Thus EB is almost certainly an error for 'E [=Giles]K'. Corroborative evidence: Kelsey was bur. at Netteswell on 27 Dec 1558: J.L. Fisher, The Harlow Deanery (Colchester, 1922), p. 132. NB Official date for Bonner's removal 30 Mar 1559. This is one of 10 institutions after that. No suggestion of sede vacante business. Who was responsible for this institution ? Was Bonner still acting as de facto bishop between deprivation (theoretical) and deposition (actual) which was on 29 May 1559 ?] |
