Abstract & context


Henry Andrew(e)s wrote his will on August 7th 1638 “being sick in bodie”. Beaven states that he died August 16th 1638. He was buried on September 6th, 1638, in St. Stephens Walbrook, where he had lived since at least 1610, and where his father or another relative (Thomas Andrewes) may have lived and died.

In the parish register of St. Stephens Walbrook he is called variously Henry Andrewes, Mr. Henry Andrewes; haberdasher, merchant; and on his burial “alderman”, a post he held for Farringdon Ward Within since 1634.

An inventory was made of his houses in London and Laytonstone on September 28th 1638, and the will was proven shortly afterwards, on October 17th 1638. His London house was probably in the parish of St. Stephen’s Walbrook, which is one location mentioned in his will, though Bowe Church and Wansted are also mentioned, as well as the poor of Laytonstone.

Henry Andrewes was ranked the second most highly assessed person out of 30 in a tax assessment upon the Parish of St Stephen Walbrook in 1632. Mr. Hodges was assessed at £1 6s 8d, with “Capt. Hy. Andrews” assessed at £1 3s. 4d., and Arthur Juxson & Co. at 13s. 4d. The total amount raised was £6 19s 8d. from 30 people.

A large number of children were baptised to Henry Andrewes in the parish of St. Stephens Walbrook between 1610 and 1630 by his first two wives, Elizabeth (d. 1619 in childbirth) and Margaret (d. 1630). Anne, his third wife, outlived him and must have married him after 1630, with apparently no children.

Samuel Mico, who married Elizabeth Andrews, may have been resident in St Stevens Walbrook in 1630s, although he gives St Andrew Undershaft as his parish of residence at his death in c. 1666. At least it was St Stephens Walbrook where Elizabeth Mico, Samuel’s first wife, was buried in March 1639/40, 18 months after the death of her father. Two of Samuel Mico’s children, Samuell and Margrett, were buried inthe chancell of St Stephens Walbrook on February 24th 1641/42.

Henry Andrews was active as a merchant in the Levant and the East Indies, as well as in the traditional northern European markets of the Merchant Adventurers. He was an EIC committee for at least 1635-36, and 1636-37 A Haberdasher, he was elected to Master of the Haberdashers, 1633-34, and was elected alderman of London in 1634.

Beaven provides a brief biographical sketch.

His basic kinship data are as follows:

WIFE: (1) First wife: Elizabeth, née XXXX (mar. pre-1619; d. Dec. 2 1619 (2) Second wife: Margaret, née XXXX, d. 1630 (3) Anne , ("my now wife" (will of HA, 1638), née XXXX, mar. post 1630 and outlived him
DAUGHTERS: (1) Ann Fenn (m. James Fenn) (2) Elizabeth Mico. A significant number of daughters died in childhood
SURVIVING SONS: (1) Daniel Andrewes (bapt. Feb. 20, 1613/14) (2) Henry Andrewes (bapt. Feb. 4 1615/16) (3) Stephen Andrewes . A significant number of sons died in childhood
SONS-IN-LAW: (1) James Fenn (2) Samuel Mico (3) Edwin Browne (TBC)
COUSIN: John Clutterbooke (sic)
NIECE: ffrancis Cheney (daughter of wife's sister)

Brenner identifies Henry Andrews, together with Rowland Backhouse, Humphrey Smith, and Robert Bateman, as Merchant Adventurers active in the Levant trade, and states that it was characteristic of the merchant political elite which emerged in the “immediate pre-Civil War period” that Merchant Adventurers elected as London Aldermen were closely associated with Levant-East India trade. Andrews was a sherriff of London in 1632, together with Hugh Perry.

Henry Andrews appears to have been active in East Indian business in the 1620s, possibly with his brother, XXXX, who predeceased him. The scale of Henry Andrewes trading in East Indian goods can be seen by a record in 1635 of him and Mr. William Garway standing “as security for 2,000l. of ‘callico lawnes or shashes’. Although Henry Andrewes 1638 inventory is largely of textiles, there are also references in the EIC court minutes to dealing in rice and pepper.

In the 1640s, after Herny Andrews’s death, Daniel Andrews, his eldest son, continued his father’s involvement in the Levant Committee, as an Assistant, and in the EIC. Daniel Andrews appears to have retained his father’s house in Laytonstone after his father’s death.

Henry Andrews’ bequest of 40 to the artillery company can be read in the light of his inventory which lists a number of weapons in the Hall in his London house :

IT. 12 holberts with their cases
& and old muskett xxxij:s vj:d
IT. a loading staffe á ?Partisan á
targett an old gorget & an old
sword x:s
IT. an ensigne old x.s
IT. á glass lanthorne v:s
IT. 2 tables of the Officers ?names ij:s v:d

the beautification of London churches in Jacobean times do not all readily fit “an Arminian mould, proto- or otherwise.”

An article by Dorothy Williams Whitney titled ‘London Puritanism: The Haberdashers Company’ in Church History states that the Haberdashers’ Company seems to have been “the most successful in promoting Puritan preaching in England between 1600 and 1640.” The article argues that the court of assistants is the key group to look at, and it was there that interest in puritanism flourished pre-1640. She does not examine the views of the ordinary liverymen, who she suggests were typically lesser tradesmen. The author makes the interesting generalisation when writing about a merchant adventurer “Like many other well-to-do merchants engaged in Continental trade, Jones was a Puritan” (Whitney: 1963:304). Whitney also observes that a Puritan preacher, Richard Sedwick, graduate of Peterhouse, Cambridge, was appointed minister to the English merchants at Hamburg, remaining there for fourteen years. (Whitney: 1963:305). She further mentions the appointment of Peter Symonds, of Trinity College, Cambridge, who she states had been reader at the church of St Stephen Walbrook from 1623 to 1625, and who Whitney describes as a Puritan. Symonds was appointed by the Haberdashers in 1627 to hold the lectureship at Newland. (Whitney: 1963:308). Whitney notes that the XXXX.

Henry Andrew’s religious views need to be confirmed, but may have included an interest in puritanism. He mentions five ministers in his will: Mr Leeke, preacher at Bow church; M:r Maddison Minister at Wansted; M:r Peter Symons Minister; Doctor Howell ; and M:r Downham Minister in Walbrooke. XXXX identifies Mr Downham as “the Puritan lecturer, John Downham,” who was appointed by the Haberdashers to the London lectureship of the puitan inclined parish of S:t Bartholomew the Exchange . XXXX uses Andrewes as a case example to illustrate that examination of supporters of
