 burial register s : — 



" 1584. Mistris Joane Longe, "Widow, a woman of greate devocione." 

 " 1587. Mr. Richard Dynes, Mynister and Preacher."

 "1597. April 3. Mr. Henry Hide and Mistris Marie Langeforde married." 

 The son by this marriage was Edward Hyde, afterwards Lord Clarendon, whose 

 daughter, Ann Hyde, became the wife of James, Duke of York (afterwards
