Note (Additional information about the record)
- Dated by Rees to?1381-2, but on the guard to?1391-2. The only date mentioned is the Sunday after the feast of St Luke (the feast falls on 18 October), but the regnal year mentioned is incomplete, being either 5 or 15 (presumably Richard II, and therefore either 1381 or 1391). The events cited by Rees are inconclusive, and therefore a date covering these two ranges has been assigned.
