HK document printed below (from the original Probate 

 Copy in possession of B. T. Fitzherbert, Esq., of 

 Swynnerton Park, Staffs.) is at once a Will and a 

 Deed of Appointment \ the Will ending with the 

 word "above written," and the Deed of Appointment com- 

 mencing with the word " Furthermore." 



It is interesting on account of the many articles of domestic 

 use and of dress mentioned by the testator ; and it also supplies 

 some information useful for genealogical purposes. The original 

 Will appears to be lost. The testator was the only daughter 

 and heir of John Marshall of Upton and Sibbesdon, 

 CO. Leicester, Esquire. 



The question as to what the testator meant by " the Church 

 of Saint Barloke " has been already discussed in this Journal, 

 vol. xix., pp. 95-96. On the whole, it appears probable that 

 " the Church of Saint Barloke " may have been the Chapel 

 at the east end of the north aisle of Norbury Church, and not 

 the south-east Chapel. It is true that the latter contains a figure 

 of St. Barloke in the window ; but most of the stained glass in 

 Norbury Church has been moved from its original position ;
