A MS. Brit. Mus. (MS. Reg. 2, A. xviii A) gives a calendar of special events, and under 29th October 1537 it is stated: “This day dysseasyd Elizabethe Lukar, dowghter of Paul Withypoll.” A note to this adds that a Sarum Missal, in possession of Mr. Douce, contained that and other entries, e.g. “XII Kl. Feb., 1509. This day was Pol Withypol, married to me Anne Cursonne his wife.” The above-mentioned Elizabeth was born in 1510, her brother Edward in 1512 (Brit. Mus. 5524, f. 94).
