New Grove 2d ed.:(Morley, Thomas; b. Norwich, 1557 or 1558; d. London, early Oct.
1602; English composer, editor, theorist and organist. A note, "Thomas Morley aetatis
suae 19 ano. Domini 1576," appended by John Sadler to one part of his copy of Domine,
non est exaltatum cor meum, is the sole record of Morley's date of birth. On Oct.
7, 1602, [...]The parish named is that of St Andrew's, Holborn, rather than St Helen's,
Bishopsgate, and there are many other Thomas Morleys in the city records of the time;
but the widow's first name and the proximity of the date to that of the Chapel Royal
reference seem more than mere coincidences, and it is reasonable to assume in the
absence of further evidence that the musician died early in Oct. 1602)
