SNODHAM (THOMAS), printer in London, 1603-25; St. Botolph without Aldersgate. Apprentice to Thomas East { EAST, Thomas (1540 - 1608) ‹ LBT 07395 › }, printer of London. The date of East's death is unknown, but on June 17th, 1609, his widow {Lucretia EAST, Lucretia (mar. EAST) ( - 1629) ‹ LBT 03124 ›] } assigned over to Thomas Snodham, who took the name of East for trade purposes, her rights in twenty-four of his copies. These were works of general literature, but two years later he obtained a share, in company with Matthew Lownes { LOWNES, Matthew ( - 1625) ‹ LBT 07992 › } and John Browne { BROWN(E), John ( - 1622) ‹ LBT 08125 › }, in a large number of East's musical publications [Arber, iii. 413, 465]. The earliest entry under Thomas Snodham's name in the Registers is on May 14th, 1603 [Arber, iii. 234]. In 1615 he had two presses [Ibid., p. 699]. In 1619 Snodham was sent into Ireland by the Company "to take the account". This was in connection with the "Irish Stock," which proved a failure and was eventually wound up. During his absence, the Court agreed that he might work two presses, and allowed his wife {Elizabeth BURBY, Elizabeth (mar. SNODHAM) ( - 1626) ‹ LBT 03126 › } £4 per week if the work done amounted to so much. [Records of the Stationers' Company.] Thomas Snodham married Elizabeth, sister of Cuthbert Burby { BURBY, Cuthbert ( - 1607) ‹ LBT 08823 › }. He died probably of the plague in the autumn of 1625. His will was dated October 16th and proved on the 17th. He appointed his wife sole executrix, and Edmund Weaver { WEAVER, Edmund ( - 1638) ‹ LBT 08721 › } and William Stansby { STANSBY, William ( - 1638) ‹ LBT 08785 › }, stationers, his executors [P.C.C., 109, Clarke]. His widow died a few months later, and her will was also proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury [P.C.C., 24, Hele].
