Note (Additional information about the record)
- Dated impressionistically on the basis of the hand and form of the petition. If the petitioner is the John Walsh of Dartmouth who represented the town in parliament in 1437, this petition must date from before 1446, when he died, and probably also from before 1430, the year in which he first held local office as one of the bailiffs of Dartmouth. See H. R. Watkin, Dartmouth, p.185.
