In the
following abstracts of the Wills of the Parishioners, proved in the
Consistory Court at Canterbury (except that of John Motesfont) the
customary commending the soul "to God, Our Lady & all the Holy
Company of Heaven", and also the bequest to the high altar for
tithes forgotten, have been omitted.
The place of burial was "in the churchyard of All
Saints, Lydd" unless otherwise stated. The names of persons and
places are as mentioned, & unless stated all lands, tenements etc
are in Lydd parish.
The date January to March of the years is in the modern form.
In the church of All Saints Lydd there was a Chapel of The
Trinity, St Mary, St John and St Mildred, also an Altar of the Twelve
Apostles. The Fraternities or Brotherhoods or Guilds whose members
maintained and looked after the light of the Saint were:- the Trinity,
Our Lady, Holy Cross (or the Rood), All Saints, St Barbara, St
Christopher, St George, St James, St John the Baptist, St Katherine, St
Peter, St Nicholas and the Jesus Mass (a weekly devotion every Friday).
Other lights in the Church were to St Anthony, St Gregory the Pope, St
Mary Magdalen, St Michael & Our Lady in Jeson (or Childbirth). The
lights of Dengemarsh & of Westbrook (maintained by the people of
those parts of the parish) are probably some of the above.
