John Basset , aged 52 years and more, says that John Helion was aged 21 years and more on 24 Feb. last because he was born at Chrishall on 14 Feb. 1379 and baptised in the church there. Master John Dunwich, rector of Borley , John Basset of Chrishall and Amice prioress of Ickleton raised him from the font on St. Valentine’s day. This he knows because he had a daughter Isabel baptised there on the following day.
