Ch21=18. Thomas Chichley of Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire b about 1336 d 25.02.1400

m 1361 in London Agnes Pinchon dau of William Pinchon or Pincheon

Ch20-1.

Henry Chichely, Archbishop of Canterbury b c1362, d 1443, founder of All Soul's, Oxford English archbishop, born at Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire, in 1363 or 1364. Chicheley told the pope in 1 443, in asking leave to retire from the archbishopric, that he was in his eightieth year. He was the third and youngest son of Thomas Chicheley, who appears in 1368 in still extant town records of Higham Ferrers as a suitor in the mayor's court, and in 1381-1382, and again in 1384-1385, was mayor: in fact, for a dozen years he and Henry Barton, school master of Higham Ferrers grammar school, and one Richard Brabazon, filled the mayoralty in turns. His occupation does not appear; but his eldest son, William, is on the earliest extant list 1373 of the Grocers' Company, London. On the 9th of June 1405 Chicheley was admitted, in succession to his father, to a burgage in Higham Ferrers. His mother, Agnes Pincheon, is said to have been of gentle birth

Because Henry founded All Souls College, Oxford, all of the descendants of his siblings are entitled to Fellowships of that august college.
