Author Information

Humfrey Coningsby (1567–1610) was heir to a manor in Neen Sollars, Shropshire and belonged to the branch of an ancient family whose members had once been Barons of Coningsby in Lincolnshire. He was a great traveller, setting off on his last journey, bound for Venice, in 1610 and, as the tomb memorial records, “was never after seene by any of his aquaintance on this side, the seas, or beyond, nor any certainty known of his death, wher, when, or how.” Jessica Edmondes works in the collections management department at the Bodleian Libraries of the University of Oxford.
