Reference
SC 8/80/3993B
Date
[1294-1302]
Description
Petitioners
Hugh de la Vale (Delaval).
Name(s)
Vale (Delaval), Hugh
Addressees
King and council.
Nature of request
Delaval requests that the treasurer and chancellor be commanded again to pay to him the arrears of rent due to him from several manors that he granted to Burnel for Delaval's life, and which are in the king's hand until Burnel's heir comes of age. The treasurer and chamberlain had been previously ordered to make payment but have done nothing, and as a Northumbrian knight all his holdings are burnt and destroyed.
Nature of endorsement
Coram thesauriato.
Places mentioned
Northumberland
Barnton (Barrington), [Cambridgeshire]
Tincdene (Fineden), [Northamptonshire]
Esthammes (East Ham) [Essex]
Westhammes (West Ham), [Essex].
People mentioned
Robert Burnel, [Bishop of Bath and Wells]
Philip Burnel, heir of Robert Burnel.
Note
The lands were held by Hugh Delaval by courtesy after the death of his wife, and were granted to Robert Burnel, Bishop of Bath and Wells. Burnel died in October 1292, and the inquisition post mortem of nephew and heir, Philip Burnel, was held in July 1294. The petition presumably dates to soon after Philip's death in 1294, and certainly before Hugh's death in c.1302.
