References

page 249 note 1 It is rare to find Mr. Emden combining references to more than one man. May this have happened in respect of William Barton, who was simultaneously abbot of Oseney and vicar of one of its churches, and who is identified with the abbey's seneschal during his abbacy? We note that the abbot was accused of having too many relatives about the place in 1517. Under ‘Henry of Chichester’ a number of references are joined which do not clearly concern the same man, identified as ‘possibly’ the chancellor of the University of that name. Whether Engeram de Baillol who left Oxford in 1238 was the rector of Iver who died by 1294 m a v admit of doubt.

page 251 note 1 Other references to Robert, all before 1200, are H. Singer, Dekretalensammlungen, p. 224, B.M. Harl. ch. 44 H. 34, Westminster Abbey mun. 16144. Should not this Robert's identity with the later bishop of Lismore be stated merely as a possibility?
