[Robert de Haustede]

Note
The petition is dated to c. 1343 as it seems likely that it dates closely to the inspeximus and confirmation of a grant in free alms made by Queen Philippa to the petition which dates to 6 July 1343, the original grant being dated to 1 January 1343 (CPR 1343-45, p. 58). Because the petition is badly damaged, it is possible that the petitioner was requesting the confirmation, and that the patent roll entry is the response to it.
