the present documents do not have the contributive worth pos- 

 sessed by the Osteler-Hemynges records, as will more fully appear

[i] 



Lay Subsidy Rolls, 31 October, 41 Elizabeth, Box 146, Roll 390.

Under " St Alphege and Sainte Olaues Parishes " are taxed for this 

 year only two " Strangers," that is, foreigners, one of whom is assessed as

Christofer Monioye v 11 xxvj s viij d 



[The first amount of 5/. is the property value, upon which the second 

 amount, 26s. 8d., was paid as a tax. Citizens were taxed 4s. in the pound 

 on lands, and 2s. 8d. on goods, while aliens were taxed double on both. 

 The above tax of 26s. 8d. shows that Mountjoy was assessed on goods 

 only, at tbe usual double rates levied on foreigners.]

Lay Subsidy Rolls, 1 October, 42 Elizabeth, Box 146, Roll 409. 



[Mount joy's Assessment, 1600. 



On October 1, 42 Elizabeth, the assessment of the 3 d subsidy granted in 

 39 Elizabeth shows that the adjoining parishes of St. Alphage and St 

 Olave had but one " Straunger," who is recorded under that heading with 

 the same tax as in 1599 thus:] 



Xpofer Monioye •■ v 11 xxvj s viij d 



[The two notices above are the only records of Mountjoy in the Sub 1 

 sidy Rolls, which I have personally searched. Later, I find the Huguenot 

 Society, in its three great volumes of Aliens in London, likewise finds him 

 but these two times.]
