Just a quick note, in case this is of interest to anyone 
here, that there's an error on page 39 of L'Estrange's 
Norwich.  There's a very short paragraph saying "The 
Register of All Saints [Norwich] records William Brend's 
burial 18th Sept., 1658."  From context it seemed fairly 
likely that this was a typo, and that "William" should read 
"John".  I've been able to check in the parish register, and 
the entry does indeed read "John Brand (bellfounder) buryed 
Sept. 18" under a heading of "Buryalls Ano 1658".  I imagine 
this mistake has been discovered before.
