  • I would like to record my gratitude to the Marquess of Salisbury for permission to publish these details and to search through the papers at Hatfield House, and to Mr. R.H. Harcourt Williams, the Librarian and Archivist at Hatfield House, for his willing assistance during my work there and for kindly checking my draft against the original documents.
  • Dermode (?-1618): played the harp in the King's Music from 1603–1618.
  • Mason (c. 1593–?): known only as a musician in the Earl of Cumberland's household from 1610. He collaborated with John Earsden in the writing of songs for the entertainment at Brougham Castle in 1617 given by the Earl of Cumberland for James I. Anthony Wood wrote that he graduated Mus. B. from Cambridge in 1601 and J.E. West stated that he was the organist of Trinity College, Cambridge from 1612–1629, but both of these claims are untenable in the light of the evidence among the C.F.E.P. Even before this evidence was available, Ian Spink disputed these claims in his article ‘Campion's Entertainment at Brougham Castle, 1617’ in Music in English Renaissance Drama, ed. by John H. Long, (Lexington, 1968), p. 59.

  • Edney (?-?): a flautist in the King's Music from c. 1597–1607.
  • Oxford (?-?): nothing is known beyond what appears in the C.F.E.P.
  • Innocent Lanier (?-1625): a flautist in the royal music from 1592–1625; brother of John Lanier.
  • Christian the Dane (?-?): alias Christian Cruss; only known by his appearance among the C.F.E.P.
  • John Lanier (?-1616): performed among the sackbuts and hautboys at the royal court from 1582–1616; father of Nicholas Lanier.
  • Simon the singing boy: no surname is given in the C.F.E.P., but might this not be Simon Ives (1600–1662)?
