In 1346 he was a partner in a farm belonging to the
Cockersand Abbey Estate and at an inquest was holding additional lands in Lancaster from the Earl. In 1348 he was holding additional lands in Skerton and Hackensall of the Earl and was a partner with his nephew, John Lawrence of Lancaster, in the Milnfield in Lancaster.
