It was paid annually to seven elderly and poor residents (called in the minutes the 'objects' of Lasher's charity') - remarkable, even by today's standards, for their great age. Can anyone tell me when this Thomas LASHER lived please? And anything about him?

Sorry, that link didn't give much. However, if you google "Thomas Lasher's charity" in google books there is a reference to his will of 1701.
