Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is clearly after 1318 as it makes mention of the battle of Dundalk where the petitioner alleged that he had suffered the injury in the king's service. As many of the petitions in this file date to 1320, a date of c. 1320 has been adopted, and it is likely that the petition does date to 1320, if not slightly before.
