Note (Additional information about the record)
- Datable to c. 1432 with reference to Michaelmas in the King's ninth year [1430] and to the petitioners' suit of a year and a half. It is possible that the ninth year referred to is 9 Edward IV, but CPR 1429-1436 p.10 and p.15 (mentions of Thomas Erle dated 11 November 1429 and 25 January 1430) would seem to suggest the earlier date.
