Walter de la Laund of Ireland, son of Geoffrey de la Laund.
Name(s)
Laund, Walter
Addressees
King and council.
Nature of request

Nature of endorsement
[None].
Places mentioned
Ireland.
People mentioned
Richard Lanington.
Note
The petition dates to c. 1383 as the lieutenant of Ireland was ordered to compel Lanington to provide maintenance to Laund on 30 August 1383, and it is unlikely that the complaint in the petition is too distant in date from this (CCR 1381-5::p.320).
