Note (Additional information about the record)
- Dated on the guard to 1422-3, with reference to SC 8/45/2204 and SC 8/189/9401-2. The precise relevance of these is unclear, but the executors granted the wardship and marriage of Boleyn to Thomas Somercotes of Wisslingham and Thomas Halywell of Spilsby shortly before 6 July 1424 (DL 42/18 f.189v), suggesting that they had control at that point. Another note on the guard suggests a date after 1427, but FitzHugh died in 1425.
