• Notes

  Lady Lucy Reynell was described by a nephew as 'religious and virtuous ' and proof of this is the Widow's Almshouses which survive to this da y in Newton Abbot and were founded by her as a refuge for four clergym en's widows. The conditions for a tenancy in these almshouses were lai d down by their pious founder as follows: 'They shall be noe gadders , gosuppers, tatlers, talebearers, nor given to reproachful words, no abusers of anye. And noe man may be lodged in anye of ye said houses ; nor any beare, ale or wyne should be in anye of ye said houses.' So urce: http://www.teignbridge.gov.uk/index.cfm?articleid=2500
