John de Asgarby

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

John de Asgarby was Chancellor of the University of Cambridge in 1267.

Little is known of his chancellorship. A surviving letter from archbishop

Kirkby in Kendal.[1] A further letter from Giffard in 1267 rebuked him for jealous speeches.[2]

In 1272 the

patent rolls detailed provision for his absence during a three-year visit to the Papal Court in Rome with the King's licence.[3]
