Queen
Victoria Royal Grant dated 12 January in the 15th year of the reign of
Victoria (1852) with seal attached, still in nearly perfect condition, a few
very minor chips around the edge but the detail is still all perfect and
still comes in the skippet. The document itself comes framed and is in very
good condition (as you can see, the details of the document below, they are
are completely legible.) Also adding interest is that this document includes
some notable names such as Thomas Farmer and Robert Cantwell. This
document was regarding a Richard Burton of Tunbridge Wells who was of unsound
mind and was changing changing the current trustee to 3 new trustee's. Although we don't know much about Richard
Burton, we do know he had money as he had estates in Kent and Middlesex. The
original trustee named in the document as Thomas Farmer of Gunnersbury House
near Acton was in the chemical industry and bought the small mansion in 1838
and it was kept in the family until 1889 when it was bought by the Rothschild
family. The new trustee's as indicated in this document were Robert Cantwell,
William Foote Mount and Thomas Wooton. Robert Cantwell, a surveyor and
architect was the designer of the crescent at Ladbroke Grove, London and is a
noted architect of his time. William Foote Mount was an esq of St John's Wood
and Thomas Wooton a gent. Size of
the Seal: 6" diameter so this is a large seal. Size of vellum document:
