Note 103 — VI
Reading edition
He was buried in the chancel of St Botolph's. His name appears many times in the parish book and in 1715 there is the following entry:
Received of Mr Crownfield from ye year 1708 seven shillings for a piece of ground commonly called ye round O in his garden which should have been paid at 1 shilling the year for ye use of ye poor.
The "round O" was a paschal garden which supported the Easter candle. The annual rent of one shilling was paid by Hayes up to 1703. (F. R. and A. W. G[oodman], Notes on St Botolph's Church.)
