Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated to? 1320 because the petition to which this was formerly attached is dated to? c. 1320 (SC 8/30/1464). Rees dated that petition to? 1307 but this dating must be considered suspect (Petitions Relating to Wales, p.40). The petition is also likely to date to later Edward II as many of the petitions in this file are dated to 1320.
