Note (Additional information about the record)
- Despite the bewildering range of dates with evidence given in the guard note on the dorse of this petition ranging from c. 1219 to before 1244, it seems very likely that this petition actually dates to the period 1220-1222 as it is noted in the Complete Peerage that Alice, Countess of Eu was impleaded for the castle and vill of Tickhill by Robert de Vespont and Idoin his wife in 1220, and that they released their claim by fine in the octave of the Purification in 1222 (Complete Peerage, vol. V, pp.163-4). The petitioner seems likely to be Hugh or Hugues de Thouars, seigneur of Montaigu and la Garnache.
