substantial yeoman of superior position, as is proved by the large amount he
left for masses, and the fact that his will directs he be buried in the chor
of the church. The yoemanry were almost always buried in the churchyard, only

within the church itself; and, of the burials in the church, interment in the
chior or chancel was of special distinction. [Ref: CrosbyED CROSBY p5]
