Full description and record details

Reference
SC 8/338/E1259
Date
[1305-1306]
Description
Petitioners
Gaillard de Beuvill (Beauville), seigneur de Miramont.
Name(s)
de Beuvill (Beauville), seigneur de Miramont, Gaillard
Addressees
King and council.
Nature of request
Beuvill requests his late brother's expenses that he incurred in Paris as his brother was given as a hostage for the king, and was held in prison in the Tower of Loudun for three years or more, and afterwards moved to Paris, and he died there owing the money for his expenses, and the creditors make to distrain the petitioner for the sums due. He also prays the king's grace because the people of the king of France occupy his land because he gave his castle to the king's people at the beginning of the war, but still no purveyance is made to him as has been made to barons and other people of Gascony who lost their land in that time.
Nature of endorsement
The king has said to the petitioner that he is not bound to him as he did not serve him, but concerning his brother he has sent to the bishop of Chester and the earl of Lincoln that they enquire at Paris concerning the debts that he owed for the king's service, and when the king has been certified, he will do what ought by right to be done.
Places mentioned

People mentioned
Guillaume de Beuvill (Beauville), brother of the petitioner
