Custos Rotulorum of Lincolnshire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of people who have served as Custos Rotulorum of Lincolnshire.
At the inception of the office (bef. 1544), a custos rotulorum was appointed for each of the three Parts of Lincolnshire: Richard Ogle for Holland, Sir Richard Hussey for Kesteven, and Sir Thomas Heneage for Lindsey. This arrangement was discontinued with the appointment of a single custos for all Lincolnshire in 1549.
