People who gave the abbey endowments, continued
1395 William la Zouche of Harringworth;
1478 Richard Kyffton or Kurston (Curzon? C40F);
1535 Dale Abbey had profit from a chapelry at Ockbrook (C39);
1536 Gervase Kyngeston, armiger (C40, C43)
The bulk of the income was derived from the original foundation by the families of William FitzRalph and Serlo de Grendon, and was concentrated in a comparatively small area around the site of the abbey.
In one charter, 14 bovates were granted for the sustenance of 3 canons. (1 bovate is approx. 12 acres). Sustenance doesn't mean the full maintenance of a canon, but rather a chantry endowment for the performance of masses (SALTMAN).
