Abstract: The Medical Practitioners in Medieval England. A Biographical Register, by C. H. Talbot and E. A. Hammond, was published by the Wellcome Historical Medical Library in 1965. This article presents a supplement and corrections to the register, and is the result of contributions made by many scholars, whose help I am happy to acknowledge. They are W. H. Boorman, Helen Cam, Martha Calm, Ronald A. Cohen, Harold Cook, Richard Durling, A. B. Emden, Eric Freeman, E A Hammond, P M. Hully, Stuart Jenks, Susanne Jenks, Peter Murray Jones, Edward J Kealey, Maryanne Kowaleski, Raphael Loewe, Linne R Mooney, Lucy E. Moye, Vivian Nutton, Nicholas Orme, John Symons, C. H. Talbot, Linda E. Voigts, and D H. Williams. 1 Especially helpful were Stuart and Susanne Jenks and Linne R. Mooney, whose work in fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century archives was a major asset to this study. Edward J. Kealey contributed nearly a hundred additions and corrections to Talbot and Hammond's register and to his own published work. This supplement has benefited greatly from his labours, and I am indebted to him for his generosity. I am also happy to thank the Hannah Institute, Wellcome Institute and the National Endowment for the Humanities, who helped fund research for this study, and the libraries of the Wellcome Institute, the Institute of Historical Research, the British Library and Public Record Office Finally, I am grateful to Margaret Pelling, without whose encouragement this study would never have reached completion.
