Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition is speculatively dated to c. 1310-c. 1330 as although the petition is largely illegible, the petitioners do appear to requesting payment for the soul of Edward, thus suggesting that this was shortly after the death of Edward I or II. The former is perhaps more likely based on the hand.
