CHARLEWOOD (JOHN), printer in London, commenced business early in Mary's reign in partnership with John Tisdale { TYSDALE, John ( - 1578) ‹ LBT 08553 › }, in Holborn, "nere to the Cundite at the signe of the Sarsins head." Two ballads are known printed at this address. [Soc. of A.] Charlewood was a mernber of the Grocers' Company until about 1574, though he took out licenses to print books. From 1562 to 1593 he printed continuously, and issued a very large number of books. His address was the Half-Eagle and Key in the Barbican, and in one of the Marprelate tracts it is stated that as printer to the Earl of Arundel he had a press in the Charterhouse. Charlewood's widow, Alice { CHARLEWOOD, Alice (mar. ROBERTS) ‹ LBT 03094 › }, married again James Roberts { ROBERTS, James ( - 1618) ‹ LBT 08339 › }, who thus succeeded to the business.
