so Mr Tingle the Yeoman was a landowner / farmer of his own land to have the title we should be able to find him in "the Yeomen of Gloucestershire" - another day

and Goldsmith in the Seventeenth century had wider meaning than artisan, an early "banker" if you like encompassed Loans, and money transfer notes that became cheques

the Marriage bond was a "guarantee" that the parties to the Marriage were entitled and free to marry
