Came across a website that had manuscripts that seem to be only accessable by Dr./Prof. from Universities. Not sure where in England this Humphrey Morice was and Granado Pigott but most Granado's were in Cambridge in Haddenham and Ely area which I'm related to. Just posting this for reference.

I wonder if Chris PIGOTT has any way of accessing those sources? Could you please post the web site URL so that I can check for other PIGGOTT entries?
