Cornwall fine no.56 of 1234, is further confirmation of theserelationships. It has Emma [I], wife of Robert [I] de Kardinan, claimingagainst Andrew [ her brother-in-law] for an exchange of her dower landsof East Allington and Woodhuish, and which Odo de Treverbyn and his wifeEmma [II] were claiming in turn against her, Emma [I]. Andrew exchangedEmma [I]'s Devon dower lands for the Cornish lands of Penhallam,Trevisquite, Penventinue, Cuttivett, and Prideaux-in-Luxulyan togetherwith the services of Richard de Prideaux. Andrew is the deforciant inthese fines and it seems  that the lands of Andrew's younger brother,Robert, reverted to Andrew.
