| Document Type: | tax assessment |
| Document Date: | 4 April 1440 |
| Notes: | File of six inquisitions, all held at Leicester on 4 April 1440, sewn to the original commission. Most of the inquisitions describe all househlders as having no children under 12, and all non-housheolders as being singlemen or singlewomen. Three constables seemingly appeared late to the Gartree inquest on m 5. The names of the constables were added in (two provided nil returns), but the constable from Stockerston provided two further names, which were added at the end. However, they are not noted as householders or non-householders, and the figures noted on the account roll only match the numbers appearing in the inquests if they are omitted. |
