Excerpt from Letters and Exercises of the Elizabethan Schoolmaster John Conybeare: Schoolmaster at Molton, Devon, 1580 and at Swimbridge, 1594

Many of these early letters appear to have been written from a place of which the initial letter C is only given. At this place the murder alluded to in the fifth and sixth was perpetrated, and hence the tenth and twelfth letters are dated the eleventh being written on the same occasion with the twelfth, and by the same person, must probably have been dispatched from the same quarter. Now if the place intended by this initial were known, inquiries in the register there might lead to some information respecting the family, &c., of our honest ancestor, good man Conybeare,' who evidently must have resided there some time.

Many of these early letters appear to have been written from a place of which the initial letter 'C' is only given. At this place the murder alluded to in the fifth and sixth was perpetrated, and hence the tenth and twelfth letters are dated; the eleventh being written on the same occasion with the twelfth, and by the same person, must probably have been dispatched from the same quarter. Now if the place intended by this initial were known, inquiries in the register there might lead to some information respecting the family, &c., of our honest ancestor, 'good man Conybeare,' who evidently must have resided there some time.

The letters furnish the following indications which may assist in discovering the place in question. In the eleventh letter it is said that the carrier from Barnstaple to Exeter passed through it. In the twelfth, that Parson Anne was vicar of it, but that he seems to have been dead before October, 1579. Quere, was it not Chumleigh ? - W. D. C. (It was Chittlehampton. - F. C. C.)
