Footnotes

  • 1. He is not called preb. of Wilton, but possibly considered he had claim to it by prov. to treasurership. The preb. of Wilton was created by abp. Gray 18 Apr. 1242 and annexed to the treasurership (York Minster Fasti 11 86). It was held by the treasurers from that date until 1307 when separate appointments were made by the Crown for several years (ibid.). Gaetani had lost possession of the preb. of Stillington by 1303; see p. 78.
