Note (Additional information about the record)
- Petitions Relating to Wales p.86 dates this petition to '?1284-1327': from the hand and the French endorsement, it seems likely to date from the later part of this period, and perhaps most probably from the early years of Edward III's reign, when bailiwicks would be likely to be confirmed.
