The Ipswich ancestors of Geoffrey Chaucer
This article of mine is in the Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History, 45, part 4 (2024), 691–701. The abstract follows:
The generally accepted genealogy of Geoffrey Chaucer is that created
by Redstone in 1905, using documents in the Ipswich town archives. A re-
examination of the same sources shows that Redstone made several
unwarranted assumptions, making several of his claims dubious. Moreover,
evidence concerning the crucial initial generation was misused. Here a new
genealogy is established, containing only rigorously proven links.
Corrigenda
page 695: replace “in with” by “with”.
page 700: a formatting eror has caused the bibliography entry for Clegg to be joined to the previous line.
