Note (Additional information about the record)
- A note on the guard suggests a date of 1318, with reference to a proof of age dated 25 January 1319 and inquisitions post mortem for the same man held between May and August 1325. The handwriting, the Latin endorsement and the fact that he left two young daughters as heirs suggest that the petition may relate to this man, but no definitive link is possible.
