in Norfolk, whose great pains in collecting the whole hundred of Holt, and expense in subscribing for several plates, I cannot but in gratitude mention.
The Reverend Mr. James Baldwin, rector of Bunwell and Carleton, who hath for many years past, much assisted me in collecting, transcribing, and compiling many things in this way.
The Reverend Mr. Charles Barnwell, rector of Beeston by Mileham, and Dr. Newdigate of Walsingham, who have supplied me with many curiosities of good value.
Beaupree Bell, Junior, Esq. to whom I am much indebted, for collecting many evidences, seals, and drawings, of great use to me in this undertaking.
Anthony Norris, Esq. who hath with great labour, and uncommon exactness, examined the parish churches in several hundreds.
But in a particular manner am I obliged to the Reverend Mr. Charles Parkyn, rector of Oxburgh, whose pains in drawing up the whole deaneries of Cranwich and Fincham, besides many other great assistances, can never be sufficiently repaid.
As also to that judicious antiquary, Mr. Thomas Martin of Palgrave in Suffolk, who not only supplies me with whatever occurs in his own large and valuable Collection of Antiquities, but also with the whole Collections of that late industrious and perfect antiquary, Peter Le Neve, Norroy, who for above forty years at his great expense, and immense trouble, amassed together the greatest fund of antiquities for this county that was ever collected for any single county in this kingdom; all which, by the favour of Mr. Martin, I have the perusal of, they resting in his hands till they be properly disposed of, according to Mr. Le Neve's will.
A great many others there are, to whom I am much indebted for their encouragement; but as it would be too tedious to mention them
