Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated on the guard to c.1323 on the basis of the license granted to John Eure of Dunstable to enfeoff Bard of land in Edlesborough (CPR 1321-4, p.282). However the petition concerned land that the Thorp's wished to enfeoff Bard with, so the licence may not date to 1323, though that is the date adopted here.
