(by Jane his wife, da. of Sir John Bourchier 2 Baron Berners). Remar. to Thomas Scarlett, his clerk. Buried at Harpley 3 December, 1596. [Norris.]" on p. 372. Calls her "Katherine, da. of Edm. Knyvett, of Ashwellthorpe, and widow of John Walpole, Seargeant at Law" on p. 211. According to History of Parliament and Kate Emerson both, she was his daughter. Katherine did however have a brother Edmund, mentioned in the will of her son William Walpole of North Tuddenham in the county of Norfolk, Esquire (on p. 459). The reference in the pedigree might simply be a reference to this. There is, however, a small discrepancy between what is written on p. 452, about her will, "Will dated from Harpley, 24 Nov. 1595, prov. at Norwich 8 Decemb. 1595", and that she was "Buried at Harpley 3 December, 1596", a year later, on p. 372.

An even larger gift had been made earlier in the century by Avise Gibson, who founded a school for sixty poor children and an almshouse for fourteen elderly people at Radcliffe, with a chapel. On her instructions they were to be administered by the Cooper's Company, and by the 1590s the company had placed its own coat-of-arms on the building, replacing those of the Grocers' Company, her first husband's livery company. It seems there was competitive edge when credit could be claimed from a connection with the more substantial philanthropic donations.

Thomas Earl of Surrey, and Thomas Lovell, treasurer of the household to the King, on September 14, in the 11th of Henry VIII. made an award between Sir James Boleyn, Knt. and Elizabeth his wife, one of the sisters and heirs of the aforesaid Roger, and Michael Makerel, of London, broderer, and Alice his wife, another of the sisters and heirs, and Henry Fermor, Gent. concerning the title of the aforesaid manors, and all other the lands, &c. late John or Roger Wode's; whereby Henry was to have all his lands in Norfolk, for ever, with all evidences; they to release to him and his heirs; Henry to pay to Sir James and his wife 35l. and the same sum to Michael and his wife. And in the following year, on August 12, William Whayte, of Titleshale, Gent. and Dorothy his wife, another sister and coheir, for 35l. consideration, released all their right to Henry. In the 24th of the said King, he was high sheriff of Norfolk, and a knight, and on April 8, in the said year, made his will; bequeathing his body to be buried in the church of All-Saints, of East Barsham, or elsewhere, as his executors shall think fit, to the high altar 13s. 4d. for tithes forgot, 20l. to the reparation of it, to the mother church of Norwich 6s. 8d. to every order of friars in Norwich, Walsingham, Lynn, Blakeney, and Burnham 6s. 8d.; Cokesford and Hempton abbies, each 20s. and to every chanon there 12d.; gives all his manors, lands, &c. in Norforlk, to William his son, and his heirs, remainder to Thomas his son; Dame Winefred his wife, to have an annuity of 40 marks, out of his manors, and her lodging in the east end of the house, during her widowhood, with 20l. towards hanging the same, and trimming the chamber; a bason and ewer of silver, a nest of gilt goblets; a dozen of silver spoons, two goblets, two salts, and a pleane pece for her life, with meat and drink for her self, 2 maids and a man, at the charges of his son William, during her widowhood, and apparel, implements, and stuff of her body, except a chain which his daughter Katherine was to have, the residue of all her cheyns and jewels, after her decease, to Thomas his son; also 4 beds, with all the apparel thereto belonging, a garnish of pewter pots, and pans, candlesticks, &c. convenient for her chamber, or else 20l. sterling, all after to remain to Thomas; to Amy his daughter 400 marks, &c.

He was a person of great worth and dignity, and in the 19th of Henry VII. Feb. 14th, Thomas Earl of Arundel constituted him his feodary in the county of Norfolk; his second wife, Winefride, was relict of Henry Dynne, of Heydon, and daughter of Thomas Cause, alderman of Norwich. The first mention of the name of Fermor or Frayermore, is in the 18th of Richard II. when William Fermor, vicar of West Barsham, purchased lands in Sculthorp, of John Boys, vicar of Feversham, in Kent, late parson of Sculthorp.

Henry Fermor of Taterset was living in the 6th of Henry V. and 5th of Henry VI. and Thomas Farmor, of the said town, was living in the reign of Henry VI. and Edward IV. and probably father of Sir Henry abovementioned, to whom John, prior of the house of the blessed Mary, and the convent of Hempton, for the good and wholesome advice given to them, by him, granted by other letters patents, dated in their chapter-house, October 12, Ao. 17th of Henry VII. an annuity of 20s. sterling, issuing out of their manor of Tofts, for his life. The Lady Winefrede, relict of Sir Henry, in the 26th of Henry VIII. remarried Sir John Tendal of Hockwold in Norfolk. By an indenture dated November 20, in the 18th of Henry VIII. between Thomas Duke of Norfolk, treasurer, of the one part, and Henry Fermor, of East Barsham, Esq. of the other part, it was agreed that William Fermor, son and heir apparent of Henry, shall, before the feast of All Saints following, marry Katherine Knevet, one of the daughters of Sir Thomas Knevet, deceased; her portion of 200l. to be paid to Henry Fermour, on a settlement made by him.

Records of the manor survive between 1323 and 1914.

Stow, John. "The Survey of London". The Project Gutenberg eBook. Retrieved 4 April 2024. Avise Gibson, wife unto Nicholas Gibson, grocer, one of the sheriffs 1539, by license of her husband, founded a free school at Radclyffe, near unto London, appointing to the same, for the instruction of sixty poor men's children, a schoolmaster and usher with fifty pounds; she also built alms houses for fourteen poor aged persons, each of them to receive quarterly six shillings and eight pence the piece for ever; the government of which free school and alms houses she left in confidence to the Coopers in London. This virtuous gentlewoman was after joined in marriage with Sir Anthony Knevet, knight, and so called the Lady Knevet; a fair painted table of her picture was placed in the chapel which she had built there, but of late removed thence, by the like reason as the Grocer's arms fixed on the outer wall of the schoolhouse are pulled down, and the Coopers set in place.^[124] [124] "Cursed is hee that removeth his neighbors mark, have I read."—Stow.
