he gave Felicia in marriage to Symon the Carpenter, and he gave with her a 
burgage in Burton in frank marriage, and the said Symon afterwards acquired 
half a burgage from Robert Dixi,and built upon it. Symon had issue by 
Felicia, Ralph, Lettice, and Ralph the Chaplain, and after the death of Felicia 
he married Basilia, who is now living. And the said Ralph who was heir to 
the burgage and a half was not decently maintained (non fuit sustinatus de- 
center), and Robert de Bursicote the Chaplain, the uncle of the child on the 
mother’s side, took possession of the said burgage and a half by a conveyance 
(traditionem) of the said Symon for the maintenance and education of Ralph 
(sine carta.) On his death (quo morto) the said Ralph, son and heir of the said 
Symon (the villain of the Abbot), being made a Chaplain, made a fine with the
