Notes

Note N00104German, Dutch, English, and French: from a Germanic personal name composed of the elements heri, hari ‘army’ + berht ‘bright’, ‘famous’. In Britain, this Old French name, introduced by the Normans, reinforced the less common Old English cognate Herebeorht.

Notes on the split from the established church in Sudbury:

The Rev. Samuel Crossman, Rector of Little Henny until 1662, was also leader of the Nonconformists in Sudbury. During the Commonwealth period he became Minister of All Saints, and it is probable that from there he organised a group of his Nonconformist followers in a church of their own. These met sometimes in a barn, a private house, or a room in the Rectory. Their position was made the more difficult with the passing of the penal laws in Charles 2nd's reign, but the numbers of dissenters grew so large in Sudbury, that the Mayor was often most reluctant to take action against them. When the first Chapel Trust Deed was drawn up in 1710 it mentions the "Meeting House for the people of the Presbyterian congregation".The congregation continued to grow in the eighteenth century under its various ministers. Sometimes there were quarrels, one of a political nature originating in the bribery of the parliamentary election of 1761. Four years later, owing to religious differences, a small number of the congregation left the church and set up their own place of worship opposite the Angel Inn, in Friars Street, (this was the Little or Lower Meeting House). It was an achievement of one of the finest pastors of the mother church (Great Meeting) Mr John Mead Ray, that they (the breakaway group) returned twenty years later. Mr Ray was minister for sixty-three years, an important part of his work being the rebuilding of the "Great Meeting" in 1823. The Chapel & Parsonage were rebuilt for the last time in 1859.
