Editing Richard Barnfield (section)

==Later life==
In 1605, his ''Lady Pecunia'' was reprinted, and this was his last appearance as a man of letters. Some sources have claimed that Barnfield married and withdrew to his estate of [[Dorlestone]] (a locality in Staffordshire now known as Darlaston), where he thenceforth resided as a country gentleman. This is allegedly supported by records of a will for a Richard Barnfield, resident at Darlaston who was buried in the parish church of St Michaels, [[Stone, Staffordshire|Stone]], on 6 March 1627. However, it now appears that the Barnfield in question was in fact the poet's father, the poet having died in 1620 in Shropshire.{{sfn|Massai|2004}}
