Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition refers to events in the 35th year of Edward I, the sheriffs serving from Michaelmas 1306 to Michaelmas 1307 (List of Sheriffs, p.201). The petition is clearly later, as the individuals are no longer sheriffs, and indeed one has died. In addition, Walter Langton appears to still be alive at the time of the making of this petition, so it cannot be later than November 1321, and cannot be earlier than 1312 when Langton was last treasurer. The petition can therefore date from c. 1312 to 1321, which does, of course, not rule out 1320.
