John de Neuport (Newport), clerk.
Name(s)
de Neuport (Newport), John
Addressees
King.
Occupation
clerk
Nature of request
Neuport requests that the chancellor make Heth come into Chancery and declare the king's title to the prebend of Tervin and do right, he having intruded himself by royal collation to the prebend alleging it to be void when Neuport held it by papal provision.

Places mentioned
Tervin (Tarvin), [Cheshire]
Lichfield, [Staffordshire].
People mentioned
Nicholas Heth, clerk.
Note
The petition is dated to c. 1389 as the petitioner's estate was ratified in the prebend on 8 July 1389, and it seems unlikely that the petition will be too distant from this (CPR 1388-92, p.76).
