+Possibly the same man as the thirty-two year old John or Johannes Kennett of the parish of Saint Martin Ironmonger Lane, who described himself as a gentleman and late purser of the ship the ''Pearcey'' of London. This John Kennet deposed multiple times in 1650, but all his depositions were regarding the capture of his ship the ''Pearcey'' by a French man of war. The age of the John Kennet at thirty-two in 1650 does not accurately match the age of the John Kennet at thirty-five in 1655 and the parishes of Saint Botolph without Aldergate and Saint Michael Ironmonger Lane are relatively far apart.<ref>[[HCA 13/63 f.138r Annotate|HCA 13/63 f.138r]]; [[HCA 13/63 f.181r Annotate|HCA 13/63 f.181r]]; [[HCA 13/63 f.185r Annotate|HCA 13/63 f.185r]]</ref>
