Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition probably dates to 1320 like the rest of the file and Chigwell was mayor for part of 1320. However Chigwell was mayor on three subsequent occasions, the last ending in 1328, so the petition is potentially that late. The petition is endorsed in French, so it is possible that the petition is post 1322.
