I beg your pardon, Jan - I didn't read it or your post carefully enough. The next entry is a charter of Walter, not of Avicia's son William (assuming that Richard Graves made an accurate transcription and didn't wrongly supply the name of one or other 'W'). So this appears to be a later confirmation by Avicia's grandson Walter, presumably the man in the 1221 and 1227 records we have been discussing. Peter Stewart
