See also:FABYAN, See also:ROBERT (d. 1513) , See also:English chronicler, belonged to an See also:Essex See also:family, members of which had been connected with See also:trade in See also:London. He was a member of the Drapers See also:company, See also:alderman of Farringdon Without, and served as See also:sheriff in 1493-1494. In 1496 he was one of those appointed to make representations to the See also:- KING
- KING (O. Eng. cyning, abbreviated into cyng, cing; cf. O. H. G. chun- kuning, chun- kunig, M.H.G. kiinic, kiinec, kiinc, Mod. Ger. Konig, O. Norse konungr, kongr, Swed. konung, kung)

- KING, WILLIAM (1650-1729)
- KING, WILLIAM (1663–1712)
king on the new impositions on English See also:cloth in See also:Flanders. Next See also:year he was one of the aldermen employed in keeping See also:watch at the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time of the Cornish See also:rebellion. He resigned his aldermanry in 1502, 011 the pretext of poverty, apparently in See also:- ORDER
- ORDER (through Fr. ordre, for earlier ordene, from Lat. ordo, ordinis, rank, service, arrangement; the ultimate source is generally taken to be the root seen in Lat. oriri, rise, arise, begin; cf. " origin ")
- ORDER, HOLY
order to avoid the expense of mayoralty. He had, however, acquired considerable See also:wealth with his wife See also:Elizabeth Poke, by whom he had a numerous family. He spent his latter years on his See also:estate of Halstedys at Theydon Garnon in Essex. He died on the 28th of See also:February 1513 (Inquisitiones See also:post mortem for London, p. 29, edited by G. S. See also:Fry, 1896); his will, dated the I1th of See also:July 1511, was proved on the 12th of July 1513. Fabyan's See also:Chronicle was first published by See also:Richard Pynson in 1516 as The new See also:chronicles of See also:England and of See also:France. In this edition it ends with the reign of Richard III., and this probably represents the See also:work as Fabyan See also:left it, though with the omission of an autobiographical See also:note and some religious verses, which See also:form the Envoi of his See also:history. The note and verses are first found in the second edition, printed by See also:John See also:Rastell in 1533 with continuations down to 1509. A third edition appeared in 1542, and a See also:fourth in 1559 with additions to that year. The only See also:modern edition is that of See also:Sir See also:- HENRY

In the note above mentioned Fabyan himself says: " and here I make an ende of the vii. parte and hole werke, the vii. See also:day of See also:November in the yere of our See also:Lord Jesu Christes Incarnacion M.vc. and iiij." This seems conclusive that in 1504 he did not contemplate any See also:extension of his chronicles beyond1485. The continuations printed by Rastell are certainly not Fabyan's work. But See also:Stow in his Collections (ap. Survey of London, ii. 305-306, ed. C. L. See also:Kingsford) states that Fabyan wrote " a Chronicle of London, England and of France, beginning at the creation and endynge in the third year of Henry VIII., which both I have in written See also:hand." In his Survey of London (i. 191, 2o9,: ii. 55, 116) Stow several times quotes Fabyan as his authority for statements which are not to be found in the printed continuation's of Rastell. Some further See also:evidence may be found in other notes of Stow's (ap. Survey of London, ii. 280, 283, 365-366), and in the See also:citation by See also:Hakluyt of an unprinted work of Fabyan aS the authority for his note of See also:Cabot's voyages. That Fabyan had continued his Chronicle to 1511 may be accepted as certain, but no trace of the See also:manuscript can now be found.
It is only the seventh See also:part of Fabyan's Chronicle, from the See also:Norman See also:Conquest onwards, that possesses any See also:historical value. For his See also:French history he followed chiefly. the Compendium super Francorum gestis of Robert Gaguin, printed at See also:Paris in 1497. For English history his best source was the old Chronicles of London, from which he borrowed also the arrangement of his work in civic form. From 1440 to 1485 he follows, as a See also:rule with See also:great fidelity, the See also:original of the London Chronicle in See also:Cotton MS. See also:Vitellius A. XVI. (printed in Chronicles of London, 1905, PP. 153-264).
Fabyan's own merits are little more than those of an industrious compiler, who strung together the accounts of his different authorities -without any See also:critical capacity. He says expressly that his work was " gaderyd without understandynge," and speaks of himself as "of cunnynge full destitute." Nevertheless he deserves the praise which he has received as an See also:early worker, and for having made public See also:information which through See also:- HALL

Hall and See also:Holinshed has become the See also:common See also:property of later historians, and has only recently been otherwise accessible. See also:Bale alleges that the first edition was burnt by order of See also:Cardinal See also:Wolsey because it reflected on the wealth of the See also:clergy; this probably refers to his version of the See also:Lollards See also:Bill of 1410, which Fabyan extracted from one of the London Chronicles.
