⚑ May combine several people — entries span 164 years; separation in progress

“John Shawe” likely stands for several same-named individuals (a father and son, or namesakes). The printed indexes drive the separation; until then all 24 entries stay pooled here.

The rolls attest a man of this name dead by 1395 (“late …”, an upper bound — the roll records a death only after it happened), yet 8 entries carry later dates — some will be posthumous estate business, the rest another man.

Similarly-spelled families (suggestions, not merged)

These surnames sound close to Shawe (e.g. Warenna/Warenne, Conestable/Constable). They are kept separate on purpose, some look-alikes are genuinely different families (Clare vs Claver). If you are sure two are one family, tell us to merge them.
