Further Notes

Renter Wardenship - if the normal progression was observed then White will have served as junior Renter to Bonham Norton in 1596-1507 and as senior Renter in 1597-1598 with Seton as junior. --- Assistantship - Greg (p.xxiii) thought it "reasonable to suppose that past officers remained members of the Court" and that most of those men who became Assistants between 1576 and 1602 without evidence of direct elction did so by virtue of their election as Under Warden. ---
