Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is speculatively dated to? 1378-9 on the guard, though there is no clear evidence to support this dating. The apparent counter petitions are dated on their guards to? 1385 and? c. 1390 respectively (SC 8/113/5617; SC 8/113/5627). Assuming that these dates are roughly correct, and given the hands and form of the petitions, they are here dated more impressionistically to the last quarter of the fourteenth century.
