Notes

It is difficult to separate his career from that of a namesake, a rope merchant who made his will at Bridport in Feb. 1384, especially as there is no record of probate (Dorset RO, B3/D2 ff. 106v-107). It was probably this older John who was bailiff in 1359-63, 1365-6, 1367-8, 1369-70, 1372-3, 1376-7 and 1380-1 (D2 ff. 38, 41, 42, 64, 68, 86; CAD, i. C415; ii. C2265, 2736), and MP in 1363, 1372, 1377 (Oct.), 1378, and 1380 (Jan.), but the Member for 1383 (Feb.), and, indeed, on earlier occasions, may quite feasibly have been the younger John.
