Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition dates to the period 1318-1324 because Bolington received writs of aid for the purveyance of fish in October 1314 and again in January 1318, and Henry de Hale had certainly ceased to hold office in the Wardrobe by June 1318 (CPR 1313-17, p.194; CPR 1317-21, p.69; CCR 1313-18, p.548). The petition is quite likely to be after 1322 as it is answered in French, and it may be as late as 1324 when Bolington was paid for some debts (C 62/101, m.6.).
