Thorpe (St. Peter), a parish, in the union of Spilsby, E. division of the soke of Bolingbroke, parts of Lindsey, county of Lincoln, 1½ mile (N. W.) from Wainfleet; … (From: 'Thornville - Thorpe', A Topographical Dictionary of England (1848), pp. 341-342.)

1545 Commissary Court of London. Robert COMBES, citizen & leathers. [leatherseller], St. Stephen [Coleman or Walbrook & St Benet?], Thorpe by Waynfleete, etc., Lincs. (O.W. 1545, Register 11, Folio 164)

The abstract to this index does not state whether this is St. Stephen Coleman or St. Stephen Walbrook and St. Benet. Considering the presence of Ellis COMBE in St. Stephen Coleman St., and his naming a brother Robert in his 1633 will, this record may be significant.
