But, surprisingly, it has not been documented. It was obscured and forgotten by dint of a copyist鈥檚 error, making a muddle out of the chronology of the two wives of William Pistor, Esq, of Metheringham, Lincolnshire, on the pedigrees of Pistor in the visitation of Lincolnshire in 1562-4 and the <i>Larken Collection</i> in the custody of the College of Arms, in London. By examining contemporaneous evidence recently discovered at TNA, this article gives the correct chronology of the two wives of William Pistor and documents the 15th- and 16th-century generations by which John Kingsmill derives his medieval royal ancestry.</p> <p class="AbstractReference"><em>Foundations (2015) <strong><span class="AbstractVolume">7</span></strong>: 59-78       <span class="pull-right">漏 Copyright FMG and the author, or as stated</span></em></p> <p class="readmore"><a class="btn" href="/publications/journal/vol-7a/397-fnd7-04a" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Access to full articles is restricted to members"> <span class="icon-chevron-right"></span> Read more ... </a></p> </div> </div> <div class="item leading-6"> <div class="icons"> <div class="btn-group pull-right"> <button class="btn dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenuButton-394" aria-label="User tools" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"> <span class="icon-cog" aria-hidden="true"></span> <span class="caret" aria-hidden="true"></span> </button> <ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton-394"> <li class="print-icon"> <a href="/publications/journal/vol-7a/394-fnd7-03?tmpl=component&print=1&layout=default" title="Print article < 脝lfgyva and the Cleric of the Bayeux Tapestry >" onclick="window.open(this.href,'win2','status=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,titlebar=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes,width=640,height=480,directories=no,location=no'); return false;" rel="nofollow"> <span class="icon-print" aria-hidden="true"></span> Print </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <a href="/publications/journal/vol-7a/394-fnd7-03"> </a> <div class="page-header"> <h2 itemprop="name"> <a href="/publications/journal/vol-7a/394-fnd7-03" itemprop="url"> 脝lfgyva and the Cleric of the Bayeux Tapestry </a> </h2> </div> <button class="toggle">View Abstract</button> <div class="abstract"> <div class="WordSection1"> <p class="Author"><strong>by Keith Moore<a href="#ftn1" id="ftnref1" name="_ftnref1" style="vertical-align: super;">[1]</a></strong></p> <h3 class="AbstractHeading">Abstract</h3> <p class="AbstractText">The identities of 脝lfgyva and the cleric of the Bayeux Tapestry have puzzled historians for nearly three hundred years.
