Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated to 1322 because it is clearly in the aftermath of the failed baronial revolt, Mowbray being one of the prominent rebels that was executed and forfeiting his estates as the petition makes clear. In addition a close roll entry of 5 August 1322 records the order to the keeper of Mowbray's lands in Yorkshire to pay the rent and arrears to the petitioner (CCR 1318-1323, p.588).The preceding commission to the close roll entry in CIM 1307-49 pp.157-158 is dated 1 August 1322.
