Note (Additional information about the record)
- This petition is probably from the parliament of January 1327, as it favours the party of the Queen and the Duke of Aquitaine: but it is addressed to the king, who seems to be a different person from the Duke of Aquitaine. It seems likely that this merely reflects the confusion about the status of Edward III at this point, but the petition might be from late in 1326.
