described under Charter 47.
The Pipe Roll for Lincolnshire, 22 Hen. II. contains a list of fugitives and
of those who perished in the Ordeal by Water, consequent on the Assize of
Northampton, with the values of their chattels.
In the list appears the name
of John de Bolebi, his chattels valued at lis. 6d.
This entry and the names
of the witnesses fix the dates of his Charters as probably prior to Mich. 1176.

These two Charters relate to Wingerworth in Derbyshire.
In the Red Book
of the Exchequer, A.D. 1166, Will's, Comes de Ferariis, returns that his grandfather had infeoffed Nicholaus de Breileford with one Knight's fee, aud that
also in the Feudal Aids, A.D. 1302
the latter's son, Hemicus, then held it
and A.D. 1346, we find the family of Breylesford still holding half a fee in

that exist, still I hope a considerable amount
of material for early County History has been brought together
and preserved for future use.
The value of original charters as
compared with copies in Cartularies, etc., cannot be over-estimated,
since the seal 'and style of the writing of the former, and the
names of witnesses, so often wanting in the latter, are a great
guide to the date, and when this is discovered, a further search in
the Curia Regis, Assize, and Pipe Rolls will possibly be rewarded
with much additional information.
