September 1329
Royal patent from Edward III appointing Edmund Mortayn, escheator of Ireland, and Brother John Tyrel to lead forces to recover the Isle of Man from Scottish occupation under Richard de Maundevill. The document reflects medieval military and administrative responses to threats to English sovereignty over the island, providing context for pre-Revestment Manx governance and English Crown interests.
