The first mention of the Zinzan family in England occurs in 1519 when Haniball Zinzano first came into England at the request of Charles V with a gift of horses for Henry VIII, he was somewhat later described as Hanyball of Modena. It appears in “The King’s Book of Payments” for 1519 and under the month of August as part of this segment, most of which seems to be relevant:
“To Mons. Gregory, for 18 coursers of Naples, £500.
To Sir Ric. Wingfield for a collar of Esses at making the same Gregory knight, 55¾ oz. at 40s and £6 for the fashion.
To Mons Coll, for a courser, £66 13s. 4d.
Reward to the riders and keepers, £20.
Their costs at Greenwich from their coming to 15 Aug., £72 19s 6d.
Reward to the Legate of Rome at his departure £200; to his brother £66 13s 4d. to his secretary, £33 6s 8d.
To Hanyball, a farrier who came with the said horses 66s 8d.
To the fraternity of Our Lady Guild at St. Dunstans in the West, 40s.
To Wm. Wyngefeld, riding with a letter from Penhurst to the Cardinal at Asshere, 2s.
Foreign expenses, fees and diets of the commissioners in the Welsh Marches, £340.
To Frauncis de Rege, Ambros de Milann, and Hanyball de Modena, horse keepers, diets, 20d a day.”
Your earlier reference to Alexander Zinzan of Albania is a new addition to my collection on this family.
If you live in England , there is a copy of a CD which I have produced called "The Zinzan Families" lodged with the Society of Genealogists and the Berkshire Record Office.
