[XLIII.] This is a mistake. E<dmund> W<yld> esq. assures me that 'twas James Chaloner that dyed in the Isle of Man: and that Thomas Chaloner dyed or went beyond the sea; but which of them was the eldest brother he knowes not, but he ghesses James to be the elder, because he had 1500 li. per annum (circiter), which Thomas had not.
Notes.
[BW] Aubrey gives in trick the coat 'azure, 3 cherubs' heads or.' In MS. Aubr. 8, fol. 6v, is a note:—'Is Chaloner's shield cum vel sine chevron. Resp.—cum chevron, prout per seale.'
[BX] Anthony Wood assigns the discovery, and first working, of the alum-mine to Thomas Chaloner the father, towards the end of Elizabeth's reign.
[BY] Anthony Wood says that James Chaloner, brother of Thomas, poisoned himself in 1660 at Peel Castle. Thomas died in 1661 at Middleburg in Zeeland.
