CHURTON (OLIVER), bookseller and bookbinder in London, 1616-25; Parish of St. Antholins. Took up his freedom in the Company of Stationers on September 17th, 1616 [Arber, iii. 684]. From his will, dated July 19th, 1625, it appears that he came of a numerous family in Launceston in Cornwall. From the following passage it appears that he was a bookbinder: "Item, I give to Walter Oake { } the use of my presse and past bordes and plates for one whole year, and at the end thereof to paye the value of the one halfe which they shalbe praysed at his first enjoying them. Soe he is to have the other halfe of those presses past bordes and plates as my free gift" [P.C.C., 106, Clarke).
