Walter de Wynterheie, aged 60 years, says that the said Philip son of William was 21 years of age on the feast of St. Gregory the Pope last, for he was born at Ramesham and baptized in the church there on the morrow of that feast by Sir John late rector in 5 Edward II; and this he recollects because he was then beyond the sea at Montpellier (in Monte Pusillano), and a fortnight afterwards he returned to his own country at Maidene Niweton near Ramesham.
William de Kyvele, aged 60 years and more, says the like, and recollects it because on the same day a marriage was arranged (prelocutum) for Alice his daughter, who was married to John de Shirburn within a month after Easter following.

John Daberon, of 60 years and more, says the like, and recollects it because he had a son William ordained to the order of subdeacon at Dorchester on Saturday after St. Gregory in the said year, 5 Edward II. Walter Foulke, of 50 years and more, agrees with the said John Daberon, and knows it because at that time he served John, rector of Ramesham.
