1261-6. Eichard de la Eochelle, Justiciar of Prince Edward. 



Mentioned as Justiciar 28 Oct., 1261 (E.P.E.). 



Fulk de Sanndford, archbishop of Dublin, was given the custody of 

 the land 26 Feb., 1205 (CD. I.), probably on account of Eichard 

 de la Eochelle's capture by the Geraldines. On 6 May, 1265. 

 Eichard was summoned to England by Prince Edward, and the 

 custody of the land committed to Eoger Waspail (CD. I.), but on 

 10 June Eochelle was summoned to England by the King, and 

 the bishop of Meath appointed Justiciar (CD. I.). 

 Eichard, however, continued to act till Mich., 1266 (Pipe Eoll).

(Laud MS. and CD.L). 



1 John fitz Geoffrey is mentioned in Liber Niger, no. 118, as being Justiciar, 1266, so also 

 Gilbert ; but I think this must be a mistake for 12-16.
