Description (What the record is about)

- Petitioners
- John de Faudon
- Name(s)
- de Faudon, John

- King and council
- Nature of request
- John de Faudon states that when he had lost his lands and income in Northumberland through the capture of Gilbert de Middelton, the king gave him 20 marks annually for life, to be received in the Exchequer. This is so far for him to travel to be paid that as soon as he is paid he loses half the sum: therefore he asks that he might be given the office of Coroner in Holderness, in allowance for the 20 marks.
- Nature of endorsement
- Our lord the king does not wish to remove his officer there now without reason; and therefore, if the said John knows of a reason for which the said officer should be removed, he is to inform our lord the king.
- Places mentioned
- Northumberland
- Holderness, [East Riding of Yorkshire]
- People mentioned
- Gilbert de Middelton (Middleton)

Note (Additional information about the record)
- CPR 1317-21 p.75 is dated at Westminster, 30 January 1318. The petition is perhaps most likely to date from a year or so later, and Northumberland Petitions no.119, pp.144-5 dates it to c.1320.Northumberland Petitions no.117, pp.143, discussing a related petition from the same petitioner, notes CFR 1319-27 p.40 - the grant of the office of bailiff of Holderness to John de Thweyt on 22 November 1320. However, this is not the office of coroner, and does not appear to be directly relevant.
