A sheriff 1314-15, alderman of Qu 1315-29 and Mayor 1319-20, 1321-3, 1324-6, 1327-8. His real name was Hamo de Dene (see CW 383) and he is found with that name 1304 EssFF II, 98. He was doubtless an apprentice of Richard de Chigewelle [1292 S, Qu 28], who left him certain tenements by his will, and adopted his master's surname. - Chigwell Ess.
2. William Pardome (sic), fishmonger of Old Fish St 1305 Mayors 229, W. Prodomme, fishmonger 1306 LBB 171, W. Prodehomme 1317 LBE 81 (repr. Qu), W. Prodhome 1331 Will (of St. Nicholas Cole Abbey). He was a sheriff 1320-1 and became collector of the new customs of wool in London in 1322, but was removed in the same year, being so impotent that he could not attend to the business (Fine). - OF prodomme 'a man of valour and discretion, a good man and true', also used as a surname in France (Prudhom, Prudhon, etc.).

Sir William was a Justice of the Jews in 1287 (LBD 236) and dead in 1311 (ib. 254). Batesford is Battisford Sf. - Herre is a common surname, apparently ME herre 'lord, master'.

24. Roger Gubbe 1322 Cor 56 (surety with no. 2). Doubtless a brother of Richard Gubbe [BreadSt 51], who had two brothers called Roger, one living in 1335. Roger was very likely a stockfishmonger like Richard. - Cf. 1292 S [Bridge 5].
25. Andrew de Gloucestre 1322 Cor 57 (surety Qu), 1324 ib. 107 (surety Vi). Perhaps identical with A. de Gloucestre, goldsmith 1305 CW 170, 1310 LBB 250 (brother of Robert de Gloucestre [BreadSt 83]), 1314 LBE 10, 29.

30. Connection is probable with Richard Dask 1308 LBC 163, 1318-19 LBE 105 (cornmonger), 1324 Cor 107 (surety Vi), probably resident in Vintry. Alice may have been mother of Richard. - Perhaps Aske YN.

82. Surname illegible. An assessment or a <<t>> at the beginning of the line are not visible. On the bracket over against nos. 80-82 and the circles in the margin see p. 24.
