Abstract by Kenneth W Jacob - 01 Jan 2006
The family of Chiche of Canterbury in Kent (12th-16th centuries) epitomizes the rise and fall of many within Kentish society in that period. A number of them were moneyers of the Canterbury mint in 12th and 13th centuries, rising to the rank of gentry before this branch of the family disappeared from prominence.
