note:
1309 given in Complete Peerage is incorrect [Ref: Brad Verity SGM 2/27/2003-035110]
3 Nov 1307 was deduced indirectly by Denholm-Young from the fact that Piers and Margaret are known from other evidence to have been married before 26 Jun 1308, in the presence of the king at Berkhampstead. Edw II only at Berkhampstead 2-3 Nov 1307 [Ref: CP++ Cornwall 4/20/2003 (CP III p434 and XIV p208)]
Research Notes:
1st Earl of Cornwall, of Earldom cr 1307 [Ref: CP III p433]
Earl of Cornwall [Ref: CP V p708(a), CP V p715, CP V p736f, Richardson RoyalAnc v3p219, Richardson RoyalAnc v5p79, Weis AR7 #16A, Weis AR7 #9]
Lord of the Isle of Wight [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v5p79]

14 Aug 1297: first appears in records, when expenses for service in Flanders wa accounted for [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 8/4/2002-015754]

30 Nov 1300: at Knaresborough [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 8/4/2002-015754]

1304: presumably age 21 when granted the lands, marriage and wardship of Mortimer (who would become lover of Edward's queen) [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 8/4/2002-015754]

1307: grant to Piers of the lordship of the Isle of Wight: to him, "his wife and the heirs of his body." I wonder if this might possibly indicate a marriage for Piers before that to Margaret de Clare. [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 6/8/1999]

1307-8: Chamberlain of the Household [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v5p79]

1307: Earl of Cornwall [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 8/4/2002-015754]

1309: was granted the Barony of Trematon [Ref: Sanders Baronies p91]

1309: Keeper of the Castles and Honours of Knaresborough and Wallingford [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v5p79]

1310: Justice of the Forest North of Trent [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v5p79]

Constable of Berkhampstead, Carlisle, Nottingham, and Scarborough castles [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v5p79]

executed Jun 19 1312 [Ref: Weis AR7 #16A, Weis AR7 #9]

1312: executed; widow Margaret was given Burstwick as part of her dower [Ref: Sanders Baronies p25]

castle and honour of Knaresborough were given to various people until in 1319 it was granted to Edmund of Woodstock [Ref: Sanders Baronies p60]

on his execution, the barony of Trematon returned to the crown [Ref: Sanders Baronies p91]
