Description
Summary:In his Introduction to The Visitations in the Diocese of Lincoln 1517–1531, the late Professor Hamilton Thompson drew attention to the large number of pluralist and non-resident parish priests in the diocese in the early part of the sixteenth century. He could do no more than comment on a few cases, since the scribe did not bother to include in the comperta the names of all delinquents, their alleged reasons for non-residence nor the details about their licences. More recently attention has been drawn to the actual number of non-residents, but no attempt has been made to go behind the figures to the individual priests and parishes concerned.
