    Dated to 1290 by the heading found on Rot. Parl., vol I, p.15.

    Scope and content Petitioners: John de Newburgh
    Addressees: King and Council
    Places mentioned: Dorset; Somerset.
    Other people mentioned: Ralph de Ivingeho (Ivinghoe); [Eleanor of Castile], queen of England; Henry de Newburgh; Humphrey de Waledene (Walden).
    Nature of request: Newburgh states that whereas the knight's fees in Dorset and Somerset which were not included in the fine levied between the queen and Henry de Newburgh his father were adjudged to Newburgh before Master Ralph de Ivinghoe, and he had a writ of judgement on this to Humphrey de Walden to put him in seisin the tenants did not wish to transfer their homage from the king without a special warrant, so that by a bill brought before the last parliament a writ of Chancery was ordered by the council to Master Ralph to bring the record before the council without delay, but he has done nothing, and does not wish to do anything. Newburgh requests a writ of Chancery, or to give a reason why he is unable to do so.
    Endorsement: John de Newburgh should have a writ to Ralph, just like the other, to produce the record, or to state the reason why he can't.

    Places mentioned: Stokenchurch, [Oxfordshire]; Aston Rowant, [Oxfordshire]; Wallingford, [Berkshire].
    Other people mentioned: Abbot of Westminster; Richard II, King of England; Edward [Plantagenet], Prince of Wales.
    Nature of request: The petitioners seek repeal and annulment in the present parliament of certain letters patent issued by the late King Richard [II] contrary to law and reason. They state that the Abbot of Westminster held certain lands and tenements in Stokenchurch from Champernoun by homage, fealty, etc., as a parcel of his manor of Aston Rowant. Various tenants hold other lands and tenements from the petitioners in the same vill by homage, fealty, rent, wardship, marriage, relief, estovers, suit of court, etc., granted to the petitioners' ancestors and held since time without memory. The prince had view of frankpledge of all the tenants in the vill and presentment of all articles with fees and profits, and a fair on the waste inside the vill at the feast of SS Peter and Paul each year of the honour of Wallingford, and the tolls and other profits, except pickage and stallage. The Abbot and certain tenants of the petitioners in the aforesaid vill, by conspiracy and evil design imagined between them, enfeoffed Richard, lately king of England, who granted the same lands and tenements of Stokenchurch to the Abbot and his successors forever by letters patent, by which the Abbot was seised of view of frankpledge, articles, fees and goods, and profits of the fair etc., to the disinheritance of the prince and petitioners, as they are without recovery through the common law.

    Held by The National Archives, Kew
    Language French
    Custody of the lands of Robert de Newburgh was granted to Gorges on 17 March 1322, shortly after the end of the Lancaster rebellion. Presumably Elizabeth's petition dates to some point shortly after then, possibly even to the subsequent York parliament of that year. 'Perlegh' (or 'Parlegh') may be West Parley, but the petition states that both places are in Winfrith hundred, and no such places can be found in that hundred (West Parley is in Cranborne hundred).

    Scope and content Petitioners: Elizabeth [de Neburgh (Newburgh)], widow of John de Neburgh.
    Addressees: Council.
    Places mentioned: Perlegh [unidentified], [Dorset]; Bournham [unidentified], [Dorset]; Winfrith Newburgh (Winfrith) hundred, [Dorset]; Dorset.
    Other people mentioned: John de Newburgh (Newburgh), late husband of the petitioner; Robert de Neburgh (Newburgh); sheriff of Dorset; Ralph de Gorges.
    Nature of request: Elizabeth de Newburgh requests a writ be sent to Gorges instructing him to pay her for certain lands and rents due to her for her dower from the lands of Robert de Newburgh. These lands were taken into the king's hands following Newburgh's rebellion and granted to Gorges, but since then she has not received payment.
    Endorsement: Assign faithful men to enquire into the contents of this petition, and return this into Chancery and justice will be done to her.

    The petition can be dated to 1340 by the first of the commissions issued into the matter on 6 July 1340 (CPR 1340-3, p.90). Another place was included in the later commission, and this does not appear in this petition.

    Scope and content Petitioners: Roger de Chaundos (Chandos).
    Addressees: King and council
    Places mentioned: Podyngton (Putton), Dorset; Huish Champflower, Somerset; Cantokshed (Quantoxhead), Somerset; Hewish (Beggearn Huish), [Somerset]; Hewysh [unidentified], [Somerset]; Begere Hewysh iuxta Cantokshed (Beggearn Huish), [Somerset]
    Other people mentioned: Nicholas le Walsshe (Walsh) of Putton; Matilda [de Chaundos (Chandos)], wife of the petitioner; Eleanor [of Castile], Queen of England; Henry de Neuburgh (Newburgh), squire; Maurice de Gaunt; John de Seint Poul.
    Nature of request: Chaundos requests remedy as Walsh held land of the king in Huish Champflower from the king in chief, and land in Putton from Chaundos and his wife and the king has claimed the keeping of the lands in Putton by reason of his prerogative. Chaundos states that the lands of Huish Champflower are not held of the Crown, but Queen Eleanor purchased the lordship so that the king should not have the keeping, but a confusion in the identification of Huish has caused it to remain in the king's keeping.
    Endorsement: Let certain people be assigned to enquire of this matter by a writ ordered to the escheator, and when the inquisition has been returned into Chancery let justice be done.

    Covering dates [c. 1322]
    Held by The National Archives, Kew
    Newburgh had enfeoffed Cottele in March 1320 when a licence was issued for the same (CPR 1317-21, p.430). The petition seems to date to sometime after this, as although the licence clearly shows that Cottele was re-enfeoff Newburgh and his wife, he hadn't evidently done so when Newburgh's lands were taken into the king's hand. The lands of Newburgh in Winfrith Newburgh were in the king's hand by May 1322 when the king presented to the church there (CPR 1321-4, p.123).
    Calendar of Patent Rolls, Edw II, vol. III, 1317-1321, (Public Record Office, 1903), p.430 (licence for Newburgh to enfeoff Cottele)
    Calendar of Patent Rolls, Edw II, vol. IV, 1321-1324, (Public Record Office, 1904), p.123 (reference to Newburgh's lands being in the hands of the king)
    Scope and content Petitioners: Nicholas de Cottele.
    Addressees: King and council
    Places mentioned: Winfrith Newburgh, (Dorset).
    Other people mentioned: Robert de Newbourgh (Newburgh).
    Nature of request: Cottele shows that he was enfeoffed of the manor of Winfrith by a grant of Newburgh and by the charter of the king because the manor is held in chief of the king. Cottele was seised for two years but now it is taken into the hand of the king because of Newburgh though he has nothing in the manor. He requests remedy.
    Endorsement: The king is to be certified of the manner and cause for the taking of the manor into his hand, and muniments viewed. Let justice be done in Chancery.
