- ↑ In the parish books, previous to the Reformation, there is frequent mention of Our Lady's Brethren, St. Clement's Brethren, and St. Anne's Sisters, three religious associations attached to St. Olave's Church, which had four aisles and chapels respectively dedicated to Our Lady, St. Clement, St. Anne, and St. Barbara; the following entries relating to the suppression of these associations at the Reformation, although not exactly relevant to the subject of my paper, may, perhaps, be considered sufficiently curious to excuse their introduction into this note.
