W.A. Bolt in his Supplement to "Wateringbury in the Past" (dated 1972; copy held in WLHS library) has copies of various documents held in Kent archives. This one (ref P385/5/37) appears to be two lists of people liable to rates/taxes. The first list of 27 people appears to be of people living in the parish. The second list of 8 people is headed "Forryners", probably people not actually living in the parish but nevertheless liable to rates/taxes. This second list (as transcribed by Bolt) is as follows:

The Lady le Despencer

Sir William Twisden

George Salmon

William Thrumbald

John Stone

William Moyse

Daniel Salmon

Thomas Baker
