Sort of lazy days but I am very busy reviewing items that I have thought about through the week. Finally subscribing to British History Online lets me look at some of this information that I am curious about for both books actually - Blake and Pincombe. The significance of John Pencombe accompanying John Lord Zouch to North Molton in 1486 has always been something that I wondered about since I first saw the Visitation of 1620. The very wording of it is memorable " Pyncombe of Northmolton came there with Lord Zouche about the beginning of H. 7." Significant to this family as they recorded their lines coming down from John Pencombe between 1486 and 1620. But I digress as I have set Pincombe aside for the moment.
Continuing to look at the Close Rolls and today I will read through Edward II. Edward I covered 1272 to 1307. This is a particularly interesting time in the Andover Blake family as the first mention of Blake I saw years ago and I do wish I had photographed it but do not appear to have done so. It was a John Blake and it was all in Latin. Early 1300s but I did not find anything, which did not surprise me, about the Andover Blake family in the Calendar of Close Rolls for Edward I. Edward II covers the period 1307 to 1327. The spelling at this time appears to be primarily le Blak but I believe this is predominantly the Norman Blake family. Interesting how many lines of Blake came to England from the continent.

The Calendar of Close Rolls Edward II is primarily in the London Area but the period from 1313-1317 ubckydes a John le Blake of Southhampton (since the addresses are generally referring to the county but could also be the City of Southampton). Again interesting but it is known that Richard le Blak came from Rouen Normandy in 1274 to set up a market in England. Again in 1318-1323 there is a reference to John le Blake but Gloucester is mentioned in the margin so a slight mystery. The period from 1823-1827 again contains both le Blak and le Blake.
