[? c. 1385]
Description
Petitioners
Henry Ilcombe, knight.
Name(s)
Ilcombe, Henry
Addressees
King and lords of parliament.
Nature of request
Henry Ilcombe states that he held the marriage of the heir of William FitzWalter, by gift of Cergeaux, to whom that marriage belongs, but that he has lost it by means of an erroneous judgment of Robert Bealknap, at the procurement of John Blake, as the record and process of the judgment shows. He states that this judgment was given in the absence of the Chancellor, and asks that the Chancellor be ordered to bring the judgment before the King in the present parliament or in King's Bench, and that the errors might be corrected so that he might have justice. He also requests that the Chancellor cease execution of the judgment in the meantime.
Nature of endorsement
[None]
People mentioned
William FitzWalter
John Cergeaux
Robert Bealknap
John Blake.
Note
Dated on the guard to? c. 1385, with reference to an order for the petitioner's arrest (on a seemingly unrelated matter) on 24 June 1384, and the granting of the marriage of the FitzWalter heir to a William Corby on 13 May 1385, possibly following the loss mentioned in the petition.
