1. Said by Wood to have been succ. by Hugh Nashe (Athenae Oxon. III 184), although Nashe's pres. by king 6 Sept. 1660 was said to be in succ. to Thomas Washborne. It is possible that Washborne was pres. to this preb. by the king during the Civil War period (ibid. IV 211).
1. A possible predecessor is Edmund Bracegirdle and a possible successor is Thomas Anyan.
