Michael was a son of Geoffrey Dormer (d. 1503) by his second wife, Alice Collingridge, like his father he was also a Merchant of the Staple of Calais, where he kept a wool warehouse. He was Sheriff of London in 1529, and an Alderman from 1531 until his death. He served as Lord Mayor of London in 1541, and was knighted in consequence of that office. He was also Master of the Mercers Guild in 1531 and 1545. Before 1505, he married Elizabeth Davey (or Davie)*, and by her had surviving at the time of his death, six sons (Thomas, William, Geoffrey, John, Ambrose and Walter); and one daughter, Joan. His wife died in 1535, and he married the twice-widowed Katherine Dallam on 21 Aug 1539, by whom he had no issue. Dormer had extensive holdings in Oxon and Bucks, including the manors of Long Crendon and Hughenden, as well as a large residence in London where he was residing at the time of his death. The register for this church states that "S[i]r Michaell Dormer knight & alderman" was buried here 23 Sept 1545. (The Church of St Lawrence Jewry next Guildhall--the official church of the Lord Mayors of London and the London Corportation--was twice destroyed: in 1666 By the London Fire, and in 1940 during the Blitz. It was rebuilt both times, but its churchyard no longer exists.)
