 messuage and two yardlands, lease dated 1649. Mr. Webb, 

 chaplain to Charles I., was son-in-law of Mr. E. Poore. The house

 cottage and two acres. 



Margaret and John Ray her son, cottage and one acre. 



John Biddele and son, five acres in Whitlands, and 8 acres: 10

 land. 



Hester Reade, ten acres arable. 



William Wheeler, Wm. and Jno., sons: lease 10 Charles: one 

 acre on London way, one acre in Bury Acre, one acre in Single

 only three acres, but they are severed in three several places.

 half of one-tenth af the appertinences in Durrington. 



The messuage is the farmhouse of the manor, which has A.T. on

 were at West Amesbury. 



Edward Longe, twelve acres of arable : common of pasture for 

 fifteen sheep, two Bother beasts, and two horses : and for twelve 

 sheep, two Rother beasts, and two horses. 



His house must have been in the other manor.

Robert Speckman, one and a half acres of land. 



Henry Younge, one cottage and four acres.
