Note (Additional information about the record)
- CPR 1429-36 p.564 is dated 18 April 1436; both it and SC 8/101/5011 mention a Walter Colk, tailor of Ipswich, born in Guelders, whereas this petition clearly says William and does not mention any trade. This may be a mis-copying for Walter, or this man may be a relative. In any case the petition seems likely to date from around this time.
