Note (Additional information about the record)
- This appears to have once been the first petition of SC 8/80/3978, which contains three further requests from John de Fresingfeld and which is clearly missing a first petition. Two of these petitions can be clearly dated to 1302: therefore this petition must date from 1302 also.
