Note (Additional information about the record)
- The reversion of these lands and others was confirmed to the petitioners on 11 January 1393 (CPR 1391-6, p.310), and presumably the petition pre-dates that grant, although by how far is uncertain. It clearly deals with property issues in the aftermath of the forfeiture of the Earl of Suffolk. The grant states that the petitioners were granted the income from the lands to assist in building a 'Domus Dei' in Hull, details seemingly now lost from this damaged petition.
