[British Museum, Lansdowne MS., 207 A., ff. 101d.-102d.: Extracts
from the Cartulary of Haverholme Priory]
[This is the final concord which was made at Westminster, at the Treasury,
on the morrow of St. Martin next after the agreement made between Pope
Alexander III, and the emperor of Germany [12 November, 1177]; between the
brethren of the Temple and Ralph son of Stephen (fn. 1) concerning the advowson of
the church of Roueston, and concerning lands and tenements in the same vill,
and concerning lands and tenements [folio 102] in the vill of Riskinton.
Whereupon there was a plea between them; to wit, that the brethren quitclaim to Ralph and his heirs one carucate of land in Roueston, which Geoffrey de
Cauz had given to Albreda de Lisuriis, his wife in dower, and half a carucate of
land in the same vill, with all their appurtenances; that [carucate], to wit, which
Hugh son of Gerard held; and moreover in the same vill two bovates of land
which Jocelin the clerk and his father before him held; and moreover the whole
land which was of Robert brother of Geoffrey de Cauz in Ruueston; and in the
same vill two bovates of land which Richard son of Gregory held, and one toft.
The brethren of the Temple also quitclaim to Ralph the whole tenement which
was of the father and mother of Geoffrey de Cauz in Rischinton, and which
Geoffrey himself and his brothers held of the same fee in the same vill, with all its
appurtenances. And Ralph son of Stephen gives and grants to the brethren
whatever right he has in the church of Roueston; and moreover gives them one
bovate of land, one of those bovates, to wit, which Richard son of Gregory held
with the meadow which lies towards the west, and one toft which Richard held.
And the brethren have resigned [folio 102d.] to Ralph, there in the king's court,
all the charters which they had from Geoffrey de Cauz with respect to the aforewritten lands and tenements, and the charters of Robert de Calz, Geoffrey's lord,
with respect to the confirmation of his gift.]
