Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Of Mundys of Penryn, besides Robert, mentioned above, the only two that have come to light are Anthony Mundy, living in 1599, and another Anthony Mundy who was buried in 1677. They were presumably father and son and are both described as of Penrin, the elder being a merchant and Member of Parliament for the borough. Unfortunately, the facts connected with these individuals throw no light on their parentage, nor on Peter Mundy and his family. A search among the Mundy wills, proved in the P. C. C., has been equally fruitless. Still, by prosecuting enquiries in every likely direction, I trust that, with the issue of vol. Ii. I shall be able to furnish some accurate information as to the origin of~ so unique a character as Peter Mundy. AS the scope of Mundy's work and the amount of matter that yet remains to be published are so large, I pro pose to give here but a brief chronological table of his whole career as gathered from his ms., and to follow him in detail only during the years 1608 - 1628, with the story of which this volume is concerned.
