_Prianho, De Pratellis and Prideaux Family._--What ground is there for
Dr. Oliver, the author of _Historic Collections relating to the
Monasteries of Devon_, published 1820, and the Rev. G. C. Gorham, in his
_History of St. Neots in Huntingdonshire and in Cornwall_, published in
1824, supposing that De Pratellis is the same name as Prideaux? Dr.
Oliver says (p. 123.), Adam Prianho or De Pratellis al Prydeaux
appointed prior. Gorham, vol. i. p. 172., says, Robert de Preus (_alias_
Robert de Pratell?). And again, in vol. ii. p. clxviii., Robert de
Preaux _alias_ Prideaux, was presented by the prior and convent in 1270;
his quotation is from Instituted rolls and Registers, Lincoln Cathedral:
the roll reads Preus and De Pratellis.
