indent or deed dated the first of
september 1709. Unfortunately I have no knowledge of this sort of thing and
will try to mention as many names as possible that are on it. Samuel Dannish
of Colchester (written with one N on the other side) in the county of Elsey
(Essex) Linnen Draper John Bevan of Coptford. John Goffe. Edward Warner. There
are more names listed, I get the impression it is about the dispersal of
lands and properties, given the amounts discussed ie whole streets, I would
assume these people were extremely rich. From the image the first name is
Samuel Danniel and his wife is Katherine. John Bevan was a carpenter and his
wife is named as Mary. Samuel and John are the first parties to the indenture, the second is John Eldred of Stanaway in Essex,
Gent. It is endorsed: 'A Copy of a
fine sued by Mr Saml. Daniel & his wife on ye Ship house in East Mersey
& other Tennamts. had of Mr Mayhew Attorney. A
Deed leading to ye uses of a fine. 1 Sept 1709.' |

also see Edward LEADER mentioned. I leave transcribing any more to the

LARGE
INDENTURE OR LEGAL AGREEMENT FORMING A MARRIAGE SETTLEMENT 1767 Clearly written
in a script called Chancery with a quill pen and on parchment. It is an
indenture or legal agreement forming a marriage settlement by the groom's
father upon his future daughter-in-law.
The bride Elizabeth Pung was already bringing a dowry from her own
family but that would pass into the possession of her husband, William Parson
a blacksmith on her marriage. As a
balance the groom's father made over to her the revenues of some houses and
barns, gardens etc in which he used to live at Ballingdon in Essex. The elder William Parson now lived at
Hedingham Castle and was a Maltster, his son lived in Ballingdon. The property mentioned was now in the
possession of two men Abraham Griggs and John Golding. This document was
found in a house in Ballingdon, nr Sudbury which is now Suffolk although the
boundary for essex still I believe forms part of Ballingdon. I have the main part of the document
written out by an expert of Chancery script which is being auctioned with
this item. Size of Indenture 81cm x 66cm |

related documents here; 1. Beautifully written copy of the 1719 will of John
Wood, of Stisted 2.
Very detailed set of affirmations as to how certain cottages and properties
became the property of the said John Wood without prior conveyancing , the
latter taking up 2 and a half large pages. One might assume that these formed
part of some legal proceedings. The will names several cottages and farms and
their tenants - James Clarke, Thomas Young, Widow James etc - all in the
lands of Stisted Hall. Beneficiaries are his wife Rebecca, his son Daniel and
his daughter Sarah. The further documents detail other tenants such as James
Brightman, John Sutton, Ann Sparrow, Robert Wood, Richard Tubby, James Whooley,
Joshua Grigby and various named farms in the Stisted area. |
