Details of SC 8/319/E413
Reference: SC 8/319/E413
Description:
Petitioners: John de Giffard of Brimpsfield.
Name(s): de Giffard, John
Addressees: Council.
Places mentioned: Brimpsfield, [Gloucestershire].
Nature of request: Giffard requests that the council will advise if letters patent granted to him by the king for robes and a sum of money for his life for his service with thirty men at arms in peace and war can be allowed and held or not, and that he is able to be answered.
Nature of endorsement: [None].
Note: The petition dates to c. 1316 when the original grant of the annuity and robes was made to the petitioner (CPR 1313-17, p.621). It is possible that a subsequent grant in 1319 may represent a response to the petition, though its wording seems at odds with the request made in the petition (CPR 1317-21, p.337).
Date: [c. 1316]
