the bottom of the <strong>Baynard</strong> page of the 1563 Visitations of Wiltshire is a<br />

handwritten note. Not confirmed. However the note that Robert was admitted<br />

to the Middle Temple is supported by other sources so this may also be correct<br />

"Ship Money," was an imposition charged upon the ports, towns, cities, boroughs<br />

and counties of the realm, by writs commonly called ship writs, under the great<br />

seal of England, for the providing and furnishing certain ships for the King's<br />

service. This imposition was revived by King Charles I, in the years 1635 and<br />

1636; but by Statute 17 Carolus I (1632), it was declared to be contrary to the<br />

laws and statutes of the realm, claim of right, liberty of the subject, etc.<br />

Before this was done, however, the imposition had led to most momentous<br />

consequences, and ultimately to the deposition of the King and the<br />

establishment of the Commonwealth.<br />
