 27 Elizabeth, 1585, " All that the Free Chapel with one-fourth of 

 an acre of land north of the Chapel situate in Zeals Clivedon " was 

 granted to Edward Morrice and James Mayland, from whom it 

 came to the Chafyns.

 Inteoductoey Notes. 



In the volume called " Wiltshire Institutions " Sir Thomas Phillipps has given 

 abstracts, only from the Institution Registers of the Bishops of Sarum. 



There were a great many parishes in Wiltshire under Peculiar jurisdiction, 

 the institutions to which are entered from A.D, 1548 in the Registers of the 

 Deans of Salisbury. 



The following is a list of these ancient " Peculiars " in Wiltshire, which, with 

 a great many others in the Counties of Berks, Dorset, and Devon, constituted a 

 large episcopal jurisdiction under the Deans of Sarum. This jurisdiction was 

 abolished by the Queen in Council in A.D. 1847 : —

 any given parish is obvious.
