Reference
SC 8/330/E982
Date
[c. 1317-c. 1330]
Description
Petitioners
Pierre Bonamas.
Name(s)
Bonamas, Pierre
Addressees
King.
Nature of request
Bonames requests that it is granted to him that he hold the office of sergeant of [...], Campagne and Saintonge with Mire, as Mire is not able to serve all of this on his own to the damage of the king.
Nature of endorsement
Petition of Pierre Bonames, Gascon.
Places mentioned
Campagne, [Gascony, France]
Saintonge, [France].
People mentioned
Guyllot le Mire.
Note
The petition is dated to c. 1317-c. 1330 because the petition appears to be part of a file of Gascon petitions that date to this approximate date (SC 8/330/E979-E994). Few of the petitions have proved easily datable, only SC 8/330/E987 proving of any real use, referring to John de Weston as the former chamberlain of Scotland, and he ceased to hold that office in 1317. Several of the petitions seem to refer to war service, and it is unclear whether these are references to the war in the last years of Edward I or to that of St Sardos, hence the late date of c. 1330.
