Notes

Black swan, near Arundell House, Strand, 1637


On February 17th, 1635, a young Henry Oxenden of Deane, the brother of George Oxenden, wrote to his cousin Henry Oxinden of Barham from "The Black Swan in the Strand neere Arundell house against the Halbut"[1]



The great distance that is from the lodging where wee live and blacke friers, 1642


"HO of Deane's reference to his sister Dallison "being then out of towne", confirms that she has been in London. It is not clear though whether she is living separately from HO of Deane who refers to "the great distance that is from the lodging where wee live and blacke friers."[2]
