John Tessyman (1692-1769) and Martha Tessyman née Box (1701-1781) were Martha Tessyman's parents, and therefore the grandparents of Martha Spriggs.In the early sixteenth century, damask table linen, with its elaborate reversible patterns, had been reserved for the church and the upper echelons of society, namely royalty, the nobility and the very rich. As the century progressed, however, the textile industry grew, with linen weaving centres flourishing in Flanders in the Southern Netherlands and Haarlem in Holland. As a result, the use of table linen by merchants, tradesmen, and others of the middle and upper classes grew, so that by 1600 most of these households had at least one complete set of table linen, comprising one or more tablecloths, and a number of napkins. Household inventories of the time - often listing more napkins and tablecloths than sheets and pillowcases - show the importance of table linen in households; such items were accumulated by families over many years and passed down the generations.
