      1. [S00084] http://www.ebooksread.com/authors-eng/francis-nottidge-macnamara/memorials-of-the-danvers-family-of-dauntsey-and-culworth-their-ancestors-and--nca/page-27-memorials-of-the-danvers-family-of-dauntsey-and-culworth, The marriage certificate of John Danvers and Ann Stradling has been preserved, and is a very curious and an almost unique document. The certificate was written immediately after the ceremony of the marriage, and was no doubt placed, with the other family papers, in the muniment chest of Cul- worth manor house. There it remamed till the manor passed away from the Danvers family towards the end of the eighteenth century. Since then it has, with the other Cul- worth muniments, changed hands more than once, and was in the year 1893 purchased by the British Museum, where it now figures as ' Additional Charter No. 38875.' The certi- ficate sets forth that the marriage took place on December 13, 1487, in the chapel of the Holy Trinity, within the precincts of the College of St. Martin-le-Grand....
        The certificate notifies that John Danvers, who is described as gentleman, and of the diocese of Lincoln, with his right hand took that of Anna, and said : ' I, John, take thee, Anna, to my wife, and pledge to you my faith.' Then, having withdrawn his hand, Anna incontinently took John by her right hand, and said : ' And I, Anna, take thee, John, to my man and husband, and to this I pledge you my faith.' And then they, having so said, and withdrawn their hands, kissed one another. The certificate also sets forth the names of the worshipful and eminent gentlemen, dwellers in London, who, with many others, witnessed the marriage. The names given are as follows : Thomas Frowyk, Lewis Pollard, Eichard Elyott, Thomas Ingylfeld (Englefield), Thomas Sabcotys (Sapcotes), Eichard Langston, Thomas Marrow, Eobert Brudenell, Edmund Tame, Edmund Bardesey, John Baff, Thomas Jakys, and William Malett.
