Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition would seem to date to c.1320 which date is based on the guard comments that the justices that the petition suggests should be empanelled occur regularly in the patent rolls for around this date. There seems to be no evidence to discredit this assessment. It certainly cannot be much earlier for it would seem that Boresworth was parson of Kirkby Overblow in the West Riding of Yorkshire in 1316 (CPR 1313-17, p.384).
