Is any subscriber acquainted with the trading that
took place between Dublin (Ireland), Chester
(Cheshire), and Rouen (France) during the period
950-1250?

Henry II issued a writ about 1170 recognising the
right of traders in Chester and the Ostmen in Dublin
as existed in his grandfather's time.

Apparently Ireland had numerous Martens, and Rouen
specialised in Marten furs, no doubt imported from
Dublin via Chester.

And of course Chester was an important trading center
meeting the needs of Henry II.

The Patent Rolls 1225-1235 mention about a dozen Rouen
merchants granted a year license to trade in England.
I am seeking earlier records of such merchants?

It seems reasonable to imagine that some Norman
families settled in Cheshire and Lancashire descending
from such merchants.

Thank you.

Paul Bulkley

Since you don't mention it, I wonder if your stating point has been J.H.
Round's 'Early Irish Trade with Chester and Rouen' in _Feudal England_
(London, 1895). I can't recall this, but I imagine he gave references.
