Edits[edit]

I'm giving this article a good going over.

n.b. http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=-sQRAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA81&dq=samuel+harsnett&as_brr=1&client=firefox-a Gives his death date as March 12, 1630. Don't know why the date difference: calendar change? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jarry1250 (talkcontribs) 18:36, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Place of Death[edit]

There are two Moretons in Gloucestershire - Morton, Gloucestershire and Moreton-in-Marsh. Prior to my recent edits the former was linked to but according to A History of Chigwell School he died in Moreton-in-the-Marsh, almost certainly the latter. What does the source used before say - I think the spelling (Morton or Moreton) is probably key. --TAS (talk) 16:44, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that was my fault I think. Anyhow, it's Moreton-in-the-Marsh according to this source among many others. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 16:57, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Brass[edit]

It would be good if a suitable image of his brass (e.g. [1], [2] or p128-9 (Plate 22) in A History of Chigwell School) could be found and used in the article. It is one of just two depictions of him I can currently think of - the other being a bust of him in, I think, Chigwell School pictured in A History of Chigwell School. --TAS (talk) 17:28, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I emailed the email address given on the first of those links a couple of weeks ago; no reply though. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 19:16, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It might be worth contacting the Monumental Brass Society, presumably the person listed last here [3] might be worth a try. --TAS (talk) 20:39, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Also the bust on Colchester Town hall. --TAS (talk) 19:04, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is its height above ground - very height to get a good side on view of. Would be useful and, of course, in the public domain if you took the photo. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 19:16, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
