| Comment | Archdeacon of Canterbury to induct.
Previous incumbent given here as Master John Cockes (Cokis), DCL, was collated by Abp. Warham, 11 July 1509 (Warham's register, f.385v). cf. A.B. Emden, A biographical register of the university of Oxford to 1500 (under Cockes). But John Cockes resigned and William Coke, BCL, was instituted by Warham 9 Jan. 1531/2 (f.414). And Valor Ecclesiasticus confims that Wiliam was there in 1535 (1, pp.67, 97) Confusion may have been caused by a previous entry on same folio - Charing vacant on death of Master John Cockes, 26 Feb. 1545/6. But whereas John Cockes died in 1546, William Coke didn't die until much later. Patron: Nicholas Bullyngham, fellow of All Souls, Oxford, the patron of Elmley, and subsequently chaplain of Abp. Cranmer (see. A.B. Emden, A biographical register of the university of Oxford, 1501-1540, p.83). f.399v. |
