1275
Roger
de Farndale was the son of Alfred Farndale (FAR0008A). He
might have been born in or about 1275.
1334
1334
was the year of the Eyre Court. It was therefore time to catch up with the
Farndale misbehaviour of the preceding years. A mainpernor was a person who
gave a guarantee that a prisoner would attend court. The folk of Farndale had
clearly been out in significant numbers to engaging in poaching. The hearing
dealt with offences of some antiquity, the reference to the seventeenth regnal
year of Edward I indicating an offence that took place in 1288 to 1289. So
these records were catching up with many years of activity in the forest.
On Pleas of the forest of Henry, earl of Lancaster, of Pikeryng [Pickering], held at Pickering before
Richard de Wylughby [Willoughby], Robert de
Hungerford and John de Hambury, justices itinerant on
this occasion assigned to take pleas of the said forest in Yorkshire: …
John son of Abba: John was sent away by the mainprise of Roger, son of
Alfred de Farndale, Roger, son of Gilbert of the same, Richard de Beverle
[Beverley] of the same, William Kyng of the same, John de Hoton
of the same, Thomas Makand, Hugh the clerk of
Cropton, William de Birkheued of Hartoft, Henry del
Tung, Peter son of Gervase, Hugh Broun [Brown], smith, and William Hare, who mainperned to have him on the first day of the eyre, and
they do not now have him, etc.
