William de Grauntsone (Grandison); Sibyl de Grauntsone (Grandison) wife of William de Grandison.
Name(s)
de Grauntsone (Grandison); de Grauntsone (Grandison), William; Sibyl

Iham (Higham)

Nature of request
The Grandisons exchanged their manors of Iham and Iden with Edward I for the manor of Dymock, and the king ordered the knights and other free tenants of the manor that they attend and answer the Grandisons as their lord of the manor. However some tenants have still not transferred their homage according to the grant and order. The Grandisons request that the king order the tenants of the manor that they are henceforth to attend and answer them as their lords as pertains to the manor.
Nature of endorsement
Let the charter be shown in Chancery, and let there be a writ according to their petition.
Note
The petition is dated to 1334 by the heading in Rot. Parl., vol II, p.73, making this petitions in parliament in 8 Edward III, though this is a Hale transcript. The petition is unlikely to be later than 29 May 1335 when the Grandisons had an inspeximus and confirmation of their charter (CPR 1334-38, p.105).
