Descripción:

A short form of ‘essoiner’, that is the man who excused the non-attendance of another at the manor court. The evidence suggests that some men, possibly with legal training, did this regularly enough for it to be seen as their ‘office’ or occupation, as in the case of a Wharfedale man: 1297-8 <i>Et Alano le Soignour</i>; 1308-9 <i>Pro j equo vendito Alano essoniatori</i>, Bolton Priory (YRS154); 1323-4 ‘Adam son of Alan <i>Soygnour</i>’, Nesfield (YRS69/115). It was not uncommon in the south Pennine parishes where it is likely to be one source of Senior as a surname: 1307 <i>William le Soyngur</i>, Flockton (YRS102/61); 1379 <i>Thomas Soignour</i>, Flockton (YRS102/66); 1391 ‘Thomas <i>del Overhall</i> of <i>Flocton</i>, <i>soignour’</i> (YRS69/60). Possibly belonging here is: 1421 <i>Thomas Lyndesay, synyar,</i> York (SS96/132).
