 In the following list of naturalizations we begin with denizens in London, given in the census (or searche for straungers) of 1571. That “search” reveals denizations granted at the very era of the Protestant Reformation. (This shows the antiquity of naturalizations, which appears also in the title of an Act of the last Parliament of the bloody Queen Mary — “An Act for expelling all the French out of this kingdom that are not denizens.” ) Next follow the names found in the Calendar of State Papers for the reign of James I., and also (but within brackets) names in the Camden Society lists for that reign. Then we give the naturalizations in the reign of Charles I., taken from the Calendar and from Patent Rolls; and finally, those (before 1681) in the reign of Charles II., copied either from the Patent Rolls in the Public Record Office, or from a list in the Rolls of Parliament in the House of Lords:—
