Note
From the reference to the soul of King Henry, the king's father, this must date from the reign of Edward I, and the handwriting would probably suggest a date before 1300. A Roger de Attelberge is mentioned in Warwickshire in a different context in CCR 1288-96 p.118, in an inquisition dated July 1286, which is enrolled on the files for 1290 as still pending. An Isabel, widow of Adam de Erleton, is mentioned in CCR 1302-7 p.276, dated at Buxted, 27 June 1305 - but this is probably rather late.The bishop of Coventry and Lichfield is probably Roger de Meuland (1258-1295), but might be Walter Langton (1296-1321).
