Reference
SC 8/73/3604
Date
[c. 1336]
Description
Petitioners
Katherine de Strabolgy (Strathbogie), widow of David de Strathbogie, Earl of Atholl.
Name(s)
de Strabolgy (Strathbogie), Katherine
Addressees
King.
Nature of request
Strabolgy requests that the treasurer be ordered to discharge her of the sum demanded from her for the wardship of the lands of the late earl until the heir comes of age since the king has granted them to others before she could receive any of the profits.
Nature of endorsement
Let it be ordered to the treasurer and barons of the Exchequer that they hear the reasons of the petitioner and do justice to her.
People mentioned
David de Strabolgy (Strathbogie), Earl of Atholl
Walter de Maunce
John Darcy.
Note
As the petition refers to the fact that the petitioner had not been able to receive any profits from the Strabolgy lands before they were granted to others, and she had only received a grant of them on 3 June 1336, it seems reasonable to date the petition to c. 1336 (CFR 1327-37, p.488).
