^{page 15 note 1} David Olifard, see Lawrie, passim. David is written DD in the MS., and is wrongly read M by Robinson. A space is left for the name of this witness in MS. Add. 5937. Evidently an unusual form was employed in the original. This deed is evidently that cited in Queen's MS. 88, fol. 183. There the last witness is given as Hugo Ridell’.

^{page 17 note 1} Compare Harl, Chart. 83, c. 23, Add. Chart. 19909, two original grants by Earl David.

^{page 21 note 1} A Robert, parson of Horton, witnesses a grant of William de Ros in the time of King John : Brit. Mus. Harl. Ch. 112, c. 41. It is stated that he cartam fecit. It is to be noted that in no. 25 he is the last witness—unless some names are omitted.

^{page 71 note 1} Prioress Isabella occurs in 1206, Norman Moore, i. 121–2 note.

^{page 71 note 2} Roger de Mortimer is perhaps a mistake for Reginald. Roger does not occur elsewhere in the Cartulary. Reginald occurs in nos. 177, 183, 286, 294 and 301.

^{page 127 note 1} Henry the alderman does not occur in Beaven but occurs in Norman Moore, i. 102, 103, 271 note, 272, 349 note, 504 note, who suggests he may have been Henry son of Ailwin.

^{page 127 note 2} Peter the alderman does not occur in Beaven or Norman Moore.

^{page 127 note 3} Willingale in Essex, not as often wrongly stated Wellhall, Kent.
