Notes for Christopher HARRIS: Visitation of Essex 1558 - of Shenfield
From 'Chelmsford Hundred' - He dyed 26 December 1571; poffeffed of the manor of Beckneys in Afhendon, the manor of Wickford, lands in Shopland and Sutton; and a meffuage called Shenfields in Margetting, val. per ann.12 l.(b) (b) Book of Genealogies
Buried in Margaretting Church (as mentioned in his son, Sir William Herris' will)
From Dr. F.G. Emmison's - Elizabethan Essex - Harrys Christopher - Shenfield, his conies poached 1567
From - Berry's 'VictorianHistory of Essex' Three days before Christmas 1562 Francis Chaunsey of Shenfield, gentleman, took conies with ferrets and pursenets from the lands called Osgoods there belonging to Thomas Parker gentleman, and was fined 20d. In 1565 fifteen men, mostly of Great Warley, were charged with 'cony stealing' and bound over to appear by mutual recognizances, and Matthew Perry, a gentleman of that parish, was separately charged with shooting both a crossbow and a handgun. Two years later a Margaretting man with his greyhounds broke into Christopher Harry's grounds at 'Shenfield' (now Killigrews) and chased his conies with intent tokill them.
In 1564 the Chelmsford Hundred* jurors present that the way between the maple against 'Chenfeldes and Stistedes' lieth between the parishes of Writtle and Widford and is not mended, neither are the ditches scoured nor the wood felled off. Next year and again in 1566 it is still 'very noisome' betweena farm called 'Systydes and the mill hill in the parishes of Writtle, Widford and Margaretting.' Shenfields is the moated Tudor house, now called Killigrews,a quarter of a mile south-east of the Great Essex Road. Stisteds lay close to it on the opposite side; it was pulled down when Hylands Park was enlarged but its ancient kitchen-garden wall still stands by the now closed London gate off the park. *Hundred: A subdivision of a county or shire, having its own court.
