John Corfield of Chatwall and Longville.
A commission was held at Hughley in 1590 to decide whether Preen belonged to Wenlock Abbey. Both John and Johanna gave evidence. As a result, Sir John Castle, late Prior of Preen, gave them an 80 year lease of the Manor of Preen. Thus John was able to lease his land at Chatwall and Longville to his eldest son Thomas when he died.
John married Johanna WARTER, daughter of John WARTER and Unknown. (Johanna WARTER died after 1 Jan 1610.)
