| Notes |
- Walter was born about 1450. He passed away after 1522. The Military Survey of Gloucestershire 1522, was called for by the then King Henry V111, he was aware that there may be an upcoming war and wanted to know the worth of each of his subjects and who would be fit and able to bear arms.
In the survey there are only 16 men listed for Leckhampton, three of which were the Hore family, out of the 16 men listed only one was recorded as able to bear arms.
Walter Hore was born about 1450 in Leckhampton, Gloucestershire, the only record found so far is the entry in the 1522 survey - he was assessed as being worth £3 pounds, with Robert Hore £4 and Richard Hore £5.
By 1551 there were only 93 communicants in 20 households registered in Leckhampton, this gives us an idea of how small the village of Leckhampton was. (Communicant -a church member entitled to receive communion, children were deemed ready to take communion at the age of discretion, the age of 7 or 8, or even younger, the age of discretion also applied to when the church deemed it was okay for young girls to be betrothed in marriage).
