Tudor Terrier.- Brandon (Charles, first Duke of Suffolk, magnate, courtier, and soldier, c. 1484-1545).- Henry Brandon (1535-51) and Charles Brandon (1537/8-51), successively second and third Dukes of Suffolk. Terr & possessiones nup duc suff, compiled by Thomas Clyfforde, Receiver of Sir Henry Stanley, Lord Strange, later Lord Derby, manuscript in Latin, title and 17pp. excluding blanks (title on upper wrapper), in a Tudor secretarial hand, large calligraphic initials, some slight staining in corners, slightly browned, paper wrappers stitched, edges chipped, hand and flower watermark, folio, 29th September 1560 - 29th September 1561.

⁂ A terrier (register of landed property, including lists of vassals and tenants), of the lands of the Duchy of Suffolk drawn up at the instance of Sir Henry Stanley, Lord Derby, one of the co-heirs of Sir Charles Brandon and Princess Mary, sister of Henry VIII. The lands were situated in the counties of Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire, Leicestershie and Suffolk. Also with entries concerning the castle guard of the honour of Richmond, Yorkshire, the lands of the honour of Eye in Suffolk; details of fees of local officials, annuities, rents and tenths owed to royal officials, expenses of the receiver and others, monies paid to Lord Strange himself and details of sums unpaid.

Charles Brandon, first Duke of Suffolk, favourite of Henry VIII died in 1545 and was buried in St George's Chapel, Windsor. He left two sons by his fourth wife, Henry and Charles Brandon who died within half an hour of each other from the sweating sickness caught at Cambridge University in 1551. This left Brandon's descendants through the female line including those descended from Mary, sister of Henry VIII and widow of Louis XII of France, whose grand-daughter, Margaret Clifford, married Henry Stanley, Lord Strange. In these accounts it is stated that Lord Strange owed his position as co-heir "Iure d[omi]ne Margarete uxoris s[ue]". There appears to have been a written account of the partition of the possessions of the late Duke of Suffolk: there is mention herein of "Libro p[ar]tic[i]onis sive divisionis inter Cohered[es] nup[er] duc[is] Suff."
