Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is dated to c. 1315 as the grant of the sergeanty of Saujo to Bernard de France referred to in the petition dates to 5 May 1315, and it seems unlikely that the petition will be too long after this grant though it may postdate the fall of Berwick to the Scots in 1318 as the petition makes reference to service there (Gascon Rolls, 1307-17, no.1339, p.382).
