| Surname: | Colles |
| Forename: | William |
| Gender: | Male |
| Place of Residence: | Cranborne, Cranborne hundred, Dorset |
| Place of Origin: | [Guernsey] [modern: Channel Islands] |
| Origin: Nationality: | Guernseyman [Channel Islander] |
| Assessed Wealth: | 20s |
| Tax Payable: | 12d |
| Original Document: | E 179/103/121, rot. 2 (tax assessment, 6 January 1525) |
| Notes: | Taxed in the borough of Cranborne. The assessment seems confused. His wealth is given just as '20', and payment as 12d, when other goods assessments were (contrary to the act) being made at 4d for natives and 8d for aliens. However, presumably Channel Islanders should not have been charged as aliens? |
