_Thruscross_ (Vol. ii., p. 441.).--In a sermon preached at the funeral of
Lady Margaret Mainard, at Little Easton, in Essex, June 30, 1682, by Bishop
Ken, he says:
"The silenced, and plundered, and persecuted clergy she thought worthy
of double honour, did vow a certain sum yearly out of her income, which
she laid aside, only to succour them. The congregations where she then
communicated, were those of the Reverend and pious Dr. Thruscross and
Dr. Mossom, both now in heaven, and that of the then Mr. Gunning, the
now most worthy Bishop of Ely, for whom she ever after had a peculiar
veneration."
"My last son Izaak, borne the 7th of September, 1651, at halfe an houre
after two o'clock in the afternoone, being Sunday, and he was baptized
that evening by Mr. Thruscross, in my house in Clerkenwell. Mr. Henry
Davison and my brother Beacham were his godfathers, and Mrs. Roe his
godmother."--_Izaak Walton's Entry in his Prayer Book._
Peckhard, in his _Life of Nicholas Ferrar_, p. 213., quotes Barwick's Life,
Oley, Thruscross, and Thorndike.
