In the deed of 21 Novem-
ber, 1623, the property was sold to Sir Thomas Sackeville, his
heirs, etc., to the only proper use and behoof of the said Sir
Thomas Sackeville, his heirs, etc., for ever; and in this convey-
ance of 18 April, 1623, Sir John Hungerford, who sold in 1623,
is joined with Sir Thomas Sackeville in selling again. But
perhaps the explanation may lie in an improper understanding
of the deeds by the lay mind. This deed is interesting: the
property sold is the manor of Ayshton Keynes, the rectory,
and the advowson of the vicarage— all the property sold to
Sir John Hungerford by Philip, Earl of Montgomery (now
become Earl of Pembroke and Montgomery) or by the
Hungerfords to Sir Thomas Sackeville, but it excepts certain
leases, including one made in 19 James I by Sir John
Hungerford to Sir Thomas .Sackeville for 61 years, to com-
mence on the determination of the lease granted by King
Edward VI. to .Sir Anthony Hungerford, great-grandfather
of Sir John ; and it affords a limited pedigree in so far as it
also excepts customary leases granted by Sir John Hunger-
ford, Kt., grandfather, and Anthony Hungerford, father of Sir
John Hungerford, party to the conveyance, and makes
mention of his son and heir apparent, Sir Anthony Hunger-
ford. The name of Ferris, the lessee of 1576, re-appears in
John Ferris, who had the lease of a mill, probably the same, as
the rent is the same, from the previous 21 February for the lives
of himself, Anne his wife, and John his son.
