===[[name::Fettiplace]] [[name::NOTT]] [[date of birth::1670;1671|1670/1]]-[[date of death::1726]]===

====Biographical Note====

Son of [[family::Charles Nott]] of [[location::London]] and [[family::Eleanor Fettiplace|Eleanor (Fettiplace)]]. Admitted to the [[organisations::Inner Temple]] in 1696, according to its admissions register, although the bookplates listed below have him there in 1694. Admitted at the [[organisations::]] Middle Temple in 1690. ‘William Fettiplace Nott, Esq.’ was listed by Thomas Harwood as a Steward of [[location::Lichfield]] between 1699 and 1726; ‘William’ was presumably an error. Described as [[occupation::Serjeant-of-Law]] in the burial register of [[location::Bickenhill, Warwickshire|Bickenhill Church, Warwickshire]]. Married Sarah (Hammond).

His son and heir [[family::Fettiplace Nott]] (1702/3-75 ), Steward of Lichfield 1762-9, was admitted at the [[organisations::Middle Temple]] in 1720 and called to the bar in 1726, making it conceivable that the third of the bookplates listed below belonged to the latter.

The nature and content of his library (and that of his son) are not established.
