Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Collections of the Surrey Archaeological Society, 1890, Vol. 10: Part I
Mr. Carlos stated, that it was not known to what saint the chapel was dedicated, but that there was one in the church dedicated to St. John. He does not give an authority, nor does he say whether it be to the Evangelist or to John the Baptist. In Manning and Bray's History of Surrey, a chapel dedicated to St. John is mentioned as in the Will of John Jeffson in 1547, he directing that his body Should be therein buried. Brayley's History of Surrey assigns it to John the Baptist, but without giving any reason. Amongst the paintings, there is but one subject that can refer to the history of John the Baptist, but there are three to that of the Evangelist; so, in the absence of evidence.
