2. There was a Guy Heyno, of the same family, whom it seems reasonable to identify with the Guy Ayno referred to in the abovementioned settlement. He was the son and heir of William Heyno, who died in 1375, owner of Stenbury, a manor held by knight's service as of the lordship of Carisbrooke Castle and by an annual payment at the lord's manor of Bowcomb. At that date the lord of the castle was Ingelram de Couci, who, coming to England in 1360 as one of the hostages for King John of France, had subsequently married Isabella, eldest daughter of Edward III., and become Earl REPLIES:-Miss La Roche: Sir F.

GUY AND AGNES AYNO:
OF STENBURY.

came of age in 1383 and petitioned for livery of his lands. For the commission to William Ryngebourn and others to inquire into the petition, see Patent Rolls 7 R. II. pt. 2, m. 25d.; and for their return, dated at Newport, I. of W., 16 May, 1384, see Inq. p. m. 7 R. II., No. 46. It may be added that Carisbrooke Castle had by then come to the King's hands by reason (as stated in the return) of De Couci's adherence to the French; for upon Richard II.'s HEYNOW accession De Couci renounced allegiance to England, and returned into the service of France.

AMONG the kin of William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester, there was a certain Agnes, who, in a settlement that the Bishop made of the manors of Burnham and Brene, Somerset, in July, 1396, was described as Agneti uxori nuper Guidonis Ayno." The late Canon Moberly in his Life of Wykeham' (2nd ed., p. 304, n. 2) sought to connect this Guy Ayno with Oxfordshire, on the assumption that he bore a local name from Aynho, near Banbury," which would seem to mean Aynho within the borders of Northants. But there appear to me to be reasons for suggesting that he was of the family of Heynow or Haynow, of Stenbury, Godshill, in the Isle of Wight.

1. Several members of that family were Winchester scholars : Thomas, one of the seventy who entered the College buildings when first ready for occupation in 1394; another Thomas, who headed the list of 1439; Richard, 1449; and John, 1466. Now both Richard and John were expressly

According to Worsley's Isle of Wight' (1781), p. 220,

"the manor of Stenbury was held by the family of De Aula from after the Norman conquest, from whom it descended to that of Heyno, who enjoyed it for more than two centuries, and lived at the manor house, which was surrounded by a moat."

At any rate, William de Heynou had the manor in 1316 (Feudal Aids,' ii. 321); and under the will of Thomas Haynowe, who died in 1506 (P.C.C., 13 Adeane), it became divisible among five of his daughters and coheirs, Mary, Elizabeth, Annes, Katerine, and Grace, some provision being made for two other daughters, Bone and Mildred, who were nuns at Wynteney (Hartley-Wintney). At 10 S. iv. 270 MR. A. T. EVERITT mentioned that Mary, one of these daughters, was the first wife of William Pound of Drayton, Hants.

Precisely how Agnes Ayno was related to William of Wykeham has long been but a

matter of conjecture. His biographers, 1559. Nov. 6(?). Bullingham accepted the see. Lowth and Moberly, in the pedigrees they 1559. Dec. 17.

THE PARKER CONSECRATION AND THE LAMBETH REGISTER. (See 3 S. viii. 390; 4 S. ii. 435, 493.) THERE appears to be a curious flaw in the above-mentioned document, escaped the notice of Perceval, Haddan, and Stubbs, who relied implicitly on the record. It will be seen that such an oversight would easily occur, as the mistake consists of a misdescription of one of the minor dignitaries.

The register states that the Archbishop's two chaplains, viz., Nicholas Bullingham and Edmund Gest, respectively Archdeacons of Lincoln and Canterbury, were present on 17 Dec., 1559, and rendered their assistance: "Cui ministrabant, operamque suam prebebant, duo Archie'pi Capellani, viz., Nicholaus Bullingh'm, Lincoln., et Edmun dus Gest, Cantuarien respective Archi'ni." Now the fact is that Edmund Gest was at that time Archdeacon of Canterbury, but Nicholas Bullingham was not Archdeacon of Lincoln. He had been Archdeacon of Lincoln under Edward VI., but he fled the kingdom on the accession of Queen Mary, and never again became

The main particulars are gathered from certain letters published in The Weekly Register, 1857-9, the author being the Rev. collected into a small volume in 1859. Canon John Williams (R.C.). They were Canon Williams was not a thoroughly accurate writer; but in these points he is from Le Neve's 'Fasti' (1716), p. 157. correct. The list of archdeacons is taken forth in Rymer's Fœdera.' xv. 549, 561, The royal licence, assent, and grant are set 564. And I have verified the citation from the Lambeth Register with the photographic copy of the same.

not

It must be evident to every lawyer that if Bullingham was Archdeacon of Lincoln in December, 1559, and if he was Bishop designate; and if the Lambeth Register fails to describe him as Bishop designate, and does describe him as Archdeacon; then the Lambeth Register, as we have it, is not the original record of the have been made up sufficiently long after transaction which it describes, but must the transaction for the mistake to occur; for surely no keeper of the records, making them up during or near December, 1559, could possibly have styled Bullingham Archdeacon. And in that case what became of the original record ? For an original record there certainly was.

I wish to say plainly that I am not trying to introduce into these columns any debate concerning Anglican Orders, for in my view the question now raised does not materially

affect them.

I therefore beg that any contributor who may comment adversely on the present note will confine himself to proving, either that Bullingham was Archdeacon of Lincoln in December, 1559, or, if he was not, that
