Note (Additional information about the record)
- A detailed summary on the close roll, dated in the calendar to 1376-7, clearly relates to this case. However, the petition summarised there appears to contain a number of details inconsistent with the present petition, suggesting that either the copying was poor, the details changed between the time of the petition and the enrolment, or the enrolment refers to a different but related petition.
