About Lady Mary Cranfield

And finally, we have the year of death and place of burial for Mary Cranfield, who died young, unmarried and sans progeny (p.112 of the text):

[1641.]—Petition of William Ambler. As vestry clerk off the cathedral church of St. Peter's at York, was entitled to the covering cloths laid upon coffins at burials in that church.

"In 1635 Lady Mary Cranfield was buried there, and had a velvet covering cloth upon her coffin. Dr. Stanhope, one of the prebendaries pretended title to this cloth, and upon petitioner refusing to give it up, violently struck him iu the choir of the church, and by force took away the keys of the vestry. He then procured his dismissal from his place, and in conjunction with Dr. Hodgson, another prebendary, prosecuted him for the cloth. Prays that Dr. Stanhope and Dr. Hodgson may be sent for to answer for their oppressions."
