Note (Additional information about the record)
- This memorandum accompanies the petition SC 8/60/2959. That petition is a duplicate, and the other copies are dated to 1334 by the heading in Rot. Parl., vol II, p.73, making this petitions in parliament in 8 Edward III, though the record here is a Hale transcript. As Lysewy received the grant only in June and August 1334, it must date to later this year if Hale's attribution is correct (CPR 1330-4, pp.549 & 567).
