William Mingay, mayor in 1561, entertained the Duke and Duchess of Norfolk, and the Earls of Huntingdon and Northumberland, with many of the nobility and gentry, at a grand banquet in St. Andrew’s Hall, which, in subsequent years, was the scene of many mayors’ feasts.
Alexander Thurston was mayor in 1600, and M.P. for Norwich in 1601. He lived in a large old-fashioned house in St. Clement’s churchyard, formerly occupied by the priors of Ixworth. Some carved work in the house exhibits the initials “A. T.” and the arms of Hester Aldrich, his wife. In the adjoining house lived John Aldrich, grocer, who took an active part in suppressing Kett’s rebellion.
John Pettus, mayor in 1608, was afterwards knighted. The house at the north-west corner of St. Simon’s churchyard was long the residence of the Pettus family. The date 1608 is on the door with the arms of Pettus in one spandrel and his wife’s on the other. His monument is in St. Simon’s church.
Thomas Anguish, mayor in 1611, lived in a house at the north end of Tombland. In a court there, on an old door, is the date 1594 with the initials of himself and his wife, T. E. A. He founded the Boys’ Hospital School in St. Edmund’s. He bequeathed a house and estate in Fishgate Street to the corporation for the use and endowment of a hospital, or a convenient place for keeping, bringing up, and teaching very poor children born in the city.
Mr. John Harvey, manufacturer in 1709, was sheriff in 1720, alderman in 1722, and mayor in 1727. He died on September 28th, 1742, and was buried in the family vault, which now contains about forty leaden coffins, in the church of St. Clement’s. The family held an estate in that parish for more than a century. Some of their portraits adorn the walls of St. Andrew’s Hall.
John Patteson, mayor in 1788 and M.P. in 1806–7, resided in a house on the right-hand side of a court adjoining the Crown and Angel in St. Stephen’s Street; afterwards he resided in Surrey Street.
