BALL, Roger, of Gloucester.

Steward, Gloucester Mich. 1391–2; bailiff 1394 – 95, 1396 – 99, 1400 – 02, 1404 – 05, 1406 – 07, ?1411 – 12, 1412 – 13, 1414 – 15, 1417 – 18, 1421 – 22, ?1427–8.Gloucester Corporation Recs. ed. Stevenson, 1025, 1028; VCH Glos. iv. 373. The sole source for the year 1411–12 is S. Rudder, Glos. 114–15. It is unlikely that he was bailiff in 1422–3, as suggested by Rudder and in VCH Glos. loc. cit., or, if so, it was not with Thomas Compton as his fellow, for Compton had died ten years previously.

Commr. of gaol delivery, Gloucester Feb. 1399; inquiry Sept. 1412 (death of Thomas Compton).

Master of St. Margaret’s hosp. Gloucester, by Oct. 1403.Gloucester Corporation Recs. 1052.
