Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated on the guard to? c. 1322. The basis of this date is not clear. The petition refers to the taking of the garbe tithes in the king's ninth year. Although Lutterington has not been identified, Anthony de Lucy was a prominent royal servant and regularly occurs in Fraser's Northern Petitions where he is more active and prominent in the late 1320s and 1330s. It seems quite possible that the guard note is erroneous and that the petition refers to Edward III and not Edward II, dating the petition to after 1335, and not 1315. A date of c. 1335 has been opted for.
