John Barnard , 60 years and more, sworn and diligently examined regarding the age of Isabel, swears that she was born at Haresfield, baptised in the parish church there, and was aged 14 years on the feast of St Hypolitus last [13 August]. He well knows this because he was at Haresfield when Alice, mother of Isabel, was in labour and he heard her crying. Before he withdrew, she gave birth and he saw the messengers sent to seek the godfather(s) and godmother(s). Immediately afterwards on the same day, Isabel was baptised, just as he heard from many. He thus well recollects that Isabel was the said age on that feast.
