In parliament at Westminster in 1407 on the petition of Richard son and heir of Aubrey de Veer, earl of Oxford , the king granted that without proof of age he should have livery of the manors of Canfield and Downham with a rent in Tilbury juxta Clare and a third part of the manors of Prayors and Bourehall, which Philippa widow of Robert Beer, duke of Ireland , held during the minority of Richard by ordinance made in parliament at Westminster in 1401, the premises then being in the king’s hands owing to the minority.
Richard by indenture dated 16 Jan. 1407 made with royal licence [CPR 1405–8 , pp.297, 299, 311] granted the premises to Philippa for life on condition that if she recovered in dower from Richard in any court any lands which her husband had held the grant would be of no effect and he might regain the premises. So she held them with reversion to Richard and his heirs.
She died on 24 Sept. last . The king is her kinsman and next heir, aged 44 years and more.
