GERARD HERON
596 Writ. 18 June 1446. [Thorp]. ‪ Henry IV , by letters patent dated 10 August 1405, enrolled in the originalia, 6 ‪ Henry IV , rot. 24, granted to his dear esquire Gerard Herun , for good service past and to come, all the lands, tenements, and rents which John de Henley had in Coppergate in the city of York, and in Huntington by that city, in Yorkshire, for the term of his life, to the value of 20 marks. The lands, etc., were forfeited to the king because John and his son rose up against the king with the archbishop of York and the earl Marshal. It is given the king to understand that Gerard died a long time ago, so that the lands, etc., ought to revert to the king, and their issues ought to be answered for. Without omitting because of any liberty, inquire as to the date of Gerard’s death, and as to who occupied the lands, tenements, and rents in Huntington. Extend the lands, tenements, and rents in Huntington, and take them into our hand, to answer for the issues. Return the extent and inquisition to the barons of the Exchequer at Westminster on the morrow of St Martin. Witnessed by J. Fray by originalia of 6 ‪ Henry IV , rot. 24, writ ?returned in the quindene of Hilary. [Dorse:] Let this writ cease because it should be more fully executed by another writ, enrolled among the returnable writs of this term, rot. 6.
YORKSHIRE. Inquisition. Stamford Bridge. 24 October 1446. [Langton] [Inquisition: ms faded.]
Jurors: Nicholas Chapman ; John Alger ; Robert Forster ; Richard Fraunkeleyn ; John ?Hannok; Robert Fenton ; Thomas Weston ; William Parker ; Richard Dalton ; Nicholas Glover ; Christopher ?Byngham; Adam Knoll ; and William Sutton .
They do not know what day and year he died because he died in remote and unknown parts outside the county. He never had any lands, tenements, or rents in Huntington that were ever of John Henlay or anyone else. John Henlay never had any lands, tenements, or rents in Huntington or elsewhere in the county. Therefore the jurors cannot say who occupied the lands, tenements, and rents of John in Huntington, or received the issues. Nor can they extend the same.

597 Writ.‡ 24 February 1447. [Thorp.] As 596, but the extent and inquisition to be returned to the barons of the Exchequer at Westminster on the morrow of the close of Easter. Attested by J. Fray by originalia of 6 ‪ Henry IV [1404–5], rot. 24, and the memoranda roll, 25 ‪ Henry VI [1446–7], Michaelmas, returnable writs, rot. 6. [Dorse:] I was not able to find by inquisition or in any other way who occupied any lands, tenements, or rents in Huntington which Gerard Herun ever had, or which were ever of John de Henley , or who received the issues; so nothing further was done in execution of the writ.
