- West Tisted. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2015-08-30. Revised by … The records show two Robert le Hods resident and/or holding land in the Selborne area. The first, who figures as witness to several charters, had died by December 1236, See page named '1235 - Robert Lohod witness to charter '. when Joan, his widow, granted land and an advowson in West Tisted, Hampshire, to the prior and convent of Selborne. The surname is variously given as 'le Hote', 'Lohade', 'Lohod', 'Lohot', 'le Hod', 'le Hout' and (in the latest record, 1265) 'Lood'. It is perhaps natural to think that the Sir Robert le Hod who figures in 1240 was the son of the deceased man whose name appears slightly earlier in so many different spellings, but we cannot be certain of this unless further evidence comes to light. Robert le Hod of 1240 is styled 'Sir' and is explicitly referred to as a knight.

This complication is probably less important for the 14th century and earlier than it would be for a later period, for apart from members of the upper classes, during most of the medieval period most Englishmen's surnames had not yet become fixed.

That the records listed below all refer to one and the same Little John is quite clear from the following table of facts and associations: Six of the records refer to Little John as master of one of the king's ships; two refer to him as a mariner. On the two occasions when he allegedly participates in acts of piracy or privateering, he acts in association with fellow ship's masters and sailors of the royal fleet. The home port of the royal vessels is Westminster according to the records of 1312, 1313, 1316 (both), 1317 and 1324. In the record dated 22 July 1315, our intrepid mariner is referred to as "John Petit of Westminster".

The prioress is not given a name in either tale, and it is quite uncertain if their authors had a specific historical prioress in mind. Nonetheless a list of prioresses follows here. I believe it includes all known incumbents, yet it is quite incomplete, and unless major new discoveries are made, it will probably remain so. Note that a single year listed for an incumbent means that she is known to have been prioress (at least part of) that year. It does not mean she was not prioress the preceding or following year, only that it is not known if this was the case. Only for three prioresses do we know both the first and last year of the incumbency with reasonable certainty: Cecilia Hyk, Cecilia Topcliffe, and Joan Kyppes.

It is called 'International' because in addition to the vast amount of material that exists in English, we intend to add information about materials in other languages such as translations of ballads, secondary literature, children's fiction, literature on foreign analogues of Robin Hood etc. Arguably 'Bibliography' is a misnomer as the site already includes a wealth of all sorts of information one would not normally expect to find in a bibliography, but the bibliographical aspect is in all cases taken quite seriously, and there is already a wiki named the Robin Hood Wiki, so another name had to be found for the site.

- The site of the Robin Hood. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-12-25. Revised by … Includes information kindly contributed by Eric E. Rush. There was a public house named the Robin Hood at the corner of Chipperfield and Sayes Court roads in St Mary Cray, the present address of the site being Scarlet Court. London Pubology: Robin Hood. While there is no evidence of this, it seems likely that the pub's name was inspired either by that of a long defunct pub of the same name in the area, Robin Hood at St Paul's Wood Hill, or that of Robin Hood Shaw c. 850 m to the north-northeast.

- By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2015-07-23. Revised by … It is hoped that the list of historical sheriffs included below will in time become complete for the medieval period (up to 1500).

From that year and until 1835 there were two sheriffs: one for Nottingham itself and one for the rest of Nottinghamshire. The two boroughs mentioned at Nottingham City Council: Previous Sheriffs Of Nottingham and Nottingham in the Middle Ages (600 – 1499) should be two shrievalties or sheriff's bailiwicks. There was always only one borough of Nottingham. I am grateful to David Crook for pointing this out. More sheriffs will be added to the list when found. The list is based on both primary and secondary sources, little attempt having been made to verify the information or resolve apparent conflicts. The …72 KB (9,913 words) - 00:49, 28 April 2023
