    St. Edmundsbury Chronicle, 1296-1301:

    "Dominus Robertus de Wer comes Oxonie migravit ad dominum in crastino sancti Bartholomei apostolic [25 August]."

    Thus it would appear that Sir Robert de Vere, 5th Earl of Oxford, died 25 August 1296. St. Edmundsbury Chronicle assigns no year to the earl's death, but since it only covers events from 1296 forward and since the Fine Rolls pinpoint his death year in 1296, the year indicated is 1296.
