INTRODUCTION This volume contains the Recusant Rolls for London and Middlesex for the reign of James I. The series E3 77/12-31, 33-the Pipe Office Recusant Rolls-was used because they were the most complete. 1 In sections where the text has decayed, they have been reconstructed, where that was possible, by checking them against the E376 series. The abbreviations used in the text to explain the various sections of the entries are those devised by the late Dom Hugh Bowler, O.S.B. for vol. 57 of the Catholic Record Society with some additions which will be explained below. The Rolls are interesting for what they tell us about the composition of the recusant communitY ' in London and Middlesex, its geographical dispersion, and for changes in the enforcement of the statutes. In London the recusant community contained lords, ladies, tallow chandlers, cutlers, barber-surgeons, schoolmasters, actors, painters, servants, and many other trades. The majority of those in the lists were women. They were listed as spinsters, wives, and widows; no woman in the Rolls seems to have an occupation of her own except for those listed as spinsters and there it is impossible to know if ' spinster' refers to marital status or occupation except in the few cases where a woman is listed as wife and spinster. An exact count of occupations, classes, and geographical distribution is difficult because of multiple entries of the same recusant in the Rolls and at times in the same Roll. The Roll for 1604 (E377/13) lists two heads of households and their servants. Technically this is mandated by the 1587 statute, but is rare in the Rolls. While this recusant community had members who had other residences in the counties and while it included recusants in Westminster, Islington, and Enfield, it was centred in the parishes of St. Andrew Holborn, St. James Clerkenwell, St. Sepulchre, St. Dunstan in the West, St. Giles in the Fields, and St. Giles Cripplegate. The Rolls also reveal patterns of enforcement and change in policy. One recusant in the 1603 Roll (E377/12) was convicted by proclamation. Starting in 1608 (E377/17) the Exchequer began ordering the evaluation of the goods and chattels of some recusants. In some cases the recusants ' goods and chattels were in deed confiscated and payment for them expected. Most of the goods and chattels were evaluated, seized, and returned to the recusant; the seizure was listed in the Rolls but without the all important debet which, as Bowler pointed out in his work, indicated that the government did not intend to collect the debt, but that they were happy to carry it from year to year and hold it over the head of the recusant in terrorem. What determined whose goods were seized is not obvious from the Rolls or from the process of evaluation recorded in great detail in the Lord Treasurer's Remembrancer's Memoranda Rolls. The most extensive listing of goods and chattels occurs in 1620 (E377/ 29). Before 1608 very few of those who had received leases of the lands confiscated from recusants paid their yearly rent to the Exchequer. In 1608 I For a description of both sets of Rolls vide: Hugh Bowler, O.S.B., The Catholic Record Society Publications (Record Series). lvii, p.li n. 186.

(E377/17) the sheriffs began to collect the rents from the tenants and to collect back debts from their predecessors. 2 The collection increased after 1610 (E377/19); in E377/33, which is the Roll for both the last year of James I and the fIrst year of Charles I, sheriffs were collecting from the widows and executrices of the deceased predecessors. In 1611 (E377/20) the nature of the leases changed; land was no longer granted 'for as long as it remained in the king's hands,' but for a given term of years with a rent equal to two-thirds of the king's two parts. 3 The change in the collection policy and the change in the nature of the leases indicate that James was following Salisbury's [manciaI reforms after the failure of the Great Contract. In 1616 and 1617 (E377 I 26,27) there are four entries of fines for not receiving the sacrament of the Lord's Supper; that was not a common offence and the note on p. 106 gives other references to that offence. Anyone working with the Recusant Rolls owes an immense debt to Dom Hugh Bowler, O.S.B. without whose pioneering work none of us would know the richness of the information contained in the Rolls. I would also like to thank Mr. Patrick Burhenne, one of my undergraduate students, who transcribed the microfilm of the Rolls for me. Without his careful and diligent work, this work would have taken much longer to produce. I would also like to thank my parents: without their sacrifIces I would not have attended Xavier High School and encountered the Society of Jesus.

2An example of the increase in revenue can be found in the table in Bowler, op. cit., p. cxi n. 456. 3The change in leases is evident in the Signet Docket Book (P.R.O. SO 4) where all of the grants of the benefit of a person's recusancy were made for a term of years and for two thirds of the king's two parts.

Her convictions started in 32 Elizabeth and continued through 37, 41, and 44 Elizabeth and 1 James for which she owed the crown £1,280. She had been convicted by proclamation on 5 October 2 James I. A commission to investigate her goods and property was issued on 9 July 4 James I; the inquisition was held on 5 November 4 James I and they discovered that she was seised of 6 manors worth £223.7.71h and that she had other extensive holdings in Hereford, the city of Warwick, and Shropshire. Jane Shelley informed the barons that she had appeared before Richard [Vaughan], bishop of London on 24 September 4 James I, which was after the commission to evaluate her goods had been issued but before the sitting of the commission, and made her submission. She attended chapel at Fulham and went to her parish church, St. Andrew in Holborn, on 21 September 1606 and she took the oath of allegiance on 25 September 1606. The attorney general requested a quieta est which is noted in Roll 37 Elizabeth for London and Middlesex.

6An inquisition into the goods and chattels of Thomas Dewell was held at New Braynford, co. Middlesex, 18 May 6 James I. They found him in possession of property worth £7.4.8.
