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,
