Note (Additional information about the record)
- Dated on the guard to November or December 1433. Thomas Chalton was sheriff of London from Michaelmas 1433 to Michaelmas 1434, and the petition refers to the previous feast of St Katherine (i.e. 25 November 1433), and to the present Parliament. This presumably means that the petition was presented in the final weeks of the 1433 Parliament, which opened on 8 July and was still sitting on 18 December (the next Parliament did not open until 10 October 1435).
