Nicholas of Farndale (FAR00022), gave bail for Roger
(FAR00013A) son of Gilbert
of Farndale (FAR00018) who had been caught poaching in 1334 and
1335. Robert (FAR00031) son of Simon the miller of
Farndale (FAR00021) and Robert (FAR00012), son of Peter of
Farndale (FAR00008)
were co-offenders.
‘Pleas held at Pickering on Monday 13 Mar 1335 before Richard de Willoughby and John de Hambury. The Sheriff was ordered to summon those named to
appear this day before the Justices to satisfy the Earl for their fines for
poaching in the forest of which they were convicted before the Justices by
the evidence of the foresters, venderers and other
officers. They did not appear and the Sheriff stated that they could not be
found and are not in his bailiwick and he had no way of attacking them. He was
therefore ordered to seize them and keep them safely so that he could produce
them before the Justices on Monday 15 Mar 1335. A long list of names follows
including……Robert filium Simonis de Farndale, Rogerum de milne de
Farndale, Robertum, filium Petri
de Farndale’ (North Riding Records Yorks Volume
III, The Honour and Forest of Pickering)
