Notes
Fenchurch Street
Presumably the property in Fenchurch Street bequeathed by Maurice Stile, son of Thomas Stile, SVJS subscriber, was originally the shop of Thomas Stile, merchant of London, which his grandfather mentioned as the place where he died in 1645):
Written 29th December 1645 in the Lodging Chamber of his house in Fanchurch Streete London, where he dyed[1]
Maurice Stile’s grandfather styled himself "merchant." his father styled himself "esquire," andMaurice himself stiled himself "gentleman"
