Papers from the archive of Nathaniel Bacon of Stiffkey, Norfolk, 1546-1622. A certificate dated Vth Aprill Ao, 1613 witnessed and signed by Richard Baldwin, Sh......[?] Wardines, Samuel May, Phillip Lyon. On 8vo paper in a flourished secretary hand. It certifies that Thomas Fenner and Clement Lambert both of Bynham (Binham, near Stiffkey, North Norfolk), have received the Commyon orderlye according to the procedinge in the cause aforsayed appoynted. Docketed, 'A cert for Mr Fenns. & Lambarts Com.'.Nathaniel Bacon (?1546-1622), was the second son of Lord Keeper Sir Nicholas Bacon and his first wife Jane, daughter of Thomas Fernely, a Suffolk merchant. Nathaniel Bacon took up residence at Stiffkey Hall with his wife Anne (daughter of Sir Thomas Gresham and Mistress Dutton) in 1578, just two years after building commenced. Through his family Nathaniel close conections with leading figures at Court, especially through his father, Lord Keeper to Elizabeth I, and his father in law Sir Thomas Gresham, who was the Queen's principal financial agent. In 1574, he was appointed a J.P. in Norfolk, an office he held for almost 50 years and which he discharged assiduously. A zealous puritan in religion, he was dedicated to establsighing the puritan ethic in North Norfolk, and through his methodical and meticulous writings amassed a superbly rich archive which reveals politics and religion in action.The Stiffkey archive and other collections, which, together, contain the papers of Nicholas Bacon and his five sons, have provided a unique glimpse into the extended relationships of an important sixteenth-century family. The collection as a whole has long been recognised as one of the main sources for our knowledge of local administration in the late-Tudor and early-Stuart periods. They illuminate the activities of an important county gentleman within a variety of overlapping and interacting communities, ranging from his household and parish to the national scene. (A. Hassell Smith et al: 'The Papers of Nathaniel Bacon of Stiffkey, NRS vol 46', 1979) Provenance: collected by Percy Milligan (died 1969), for over 30 years editor of the Norfolk Record Society; then purchased by Rosalind Brewer, historian and trader/collector of rare books, manuscripts & documents, of Winfarthing and later Eye; then by descent
