page 97 note 1 Cf. a slightly later copy of the customs in Rotuli Hundredorum, ii. 837. Whereas the number of customary virgates is the same in both, far fewer cottars are enumerated in the Hundred Rolls; a fact suggesting the incompleteness of the royal record.

page 97 note 2 In the Hundred Rolls the abbot of Bee held half a virgate of Ralph de Thar.

page 98 note 1 Still holding the same tenement in the Hundred Rolls. By that time the only other free tenant of the abbot of Bee was John White, who held four virgates for suit of court.

page 99 note 1 The abbot of St. Evroult had surrendered the patronage of the church to Bee (English Lands of Bee, p. 144).
