Philpot Morant appears in the receipts for 1470–1: 'Of Philpot Morant for dewtees of the parishons – 10 0.' Agnes Maynsak was paid during 1471–2 for 'wasshyng of ye Churche clothes' and for 'a amyse cloth and the making.' William Plomer was paid for mending the organ and for 'plomer's work' (f 5), and became a churchwarden at midsummer 1471. William Sadeler was paid for helping Plomer to mend 'the wyndbagge' of the organ, and for making baldrickes for the bells (Williams (ed), Early Churchwardens' Accounts, pp 3–7). None of the others can be identified from the manuscript.

Although Andover was one of Hampshire's larger towns in the fifteenth century, it had only a single parish, St Mary's. The churchwardens' accounts for the three years from 1470 to 1473 detail the parish's income and expenditures. The accounting year ran from one feast of John the Baptist (24 June) to the next. In addition to the usual items, the accounts include references to ringing when George Plantagenet (1449–78), 3rd duke of Clarence, and his wife Isabel (b. Neville) (1451–76) came to town, as well as expenses for the Easter sepulchre.
