the date is about or after 1210.]
105. (C. p. 74).—Walter Bonekill [see no. 77] confirms to

convent owe Holm abbey half a mark yearly for land in Gilecruce.
[John Denton, Accompt, p. 48) says that Thomas and Walter
Bonekil, sons of Robert, gave away their inheritance in Gilcrouse
to the abbey of Calder. Abbot W. may have been Walter
(c. 1255), William (c. 1262) or Warin (c. 1286)].
