        Hungerford Virtual Museum: History of 24 High Street, Hungerford
        1563 (NH) John Collyns and Edward Collyns (mercer in linen and sugar) As early as 1563 John Collins and his wife Joan demised the property to two London businessmen, Anthony Gamage and Thomas Wade. Unknown to these mortgagors Collins then entered into a bond of recognisance in statute staple with Thomas Fashion, a Southampton merchant, and forfeited it to his brother Edward Collins, in partnership with John as mercers dealing in linen and sugar, was equally involved. Hence the entry in the 1573 town survey which declares that "John Collins together with Edward Collins hold by partition, as tenants in dower and by statute merchant, to Thomas Fashion of Southampton … as the only estate of the freehold of Anthony Gamage of London, merchant" which I take to mean that the whole ("only") freehold belonged to Gamage, that the tenancy was shared equally ("in partition") between the two partners and that it was held in dower on behalf of John's wife, Joan, as the property she had brought to her husband on marriage.
        1575 (NH) (No 24HS) John Collins was murdered. His share of the property seems to have passed to Edward. The parish Register states it succinctly: "22 August buried John Collins who was murthered by John Whitte the shoemaker". There are no further details of this murder known to survive. John Collins died intestate, and an inventory of his possessions was exhibited in the court of the ..?.. on behalf of his widow by his brother Edward.
        1584 (NH)(*1) (DL1/129/5) John Collins had married Joan, daughter and heir of Thomas Hedache and so inherited 2 messuages, lands etc. sometime in occupation or tenure of William Lovelake and John Cooke. In 1563 they mortgaged the property to Anthony Gamage and Thomas Wade. Gamage died and in 1582 Wade assured the premises to William Gamage.

        Must have other daughters. Will of Nathaniel 1620 mentions "sisters " Palmer, Benson and Shipton
