Two page parchment document dated 1852: Margaret Aughton, wife of Linnaeus Aughton sworn at Liverpool, Lancashire regarding property in Liverpool Other names mentioned in this document are Richard Aughton, John Aughton, William Tristram Knightley, Algernon Payne, William Shepherd & Isaac Oliver Jones . Certificate of acknowledgement of a deed by a married woman This is a guaranteed genuine Victorian parchment document consisting of at least two pages.

These certificates were introduced as part of the Fines and Recoveries Act of 1833. Their purpose was to ensure that, where a married woman was selling or mortgaging property jointly with her husband, she was of full age and completely understood what was taking place. Given that any property belonging to a woman automatically passed to her husband upon marriage, I am not convinced that this would have made any difference but, apparently, common law required her to be a party to any deed and these acknowledgements were intended to prevent the husband from abusing his position in those cases where he inherited property through his marriage. Although votes for women were still some way off, the Married Women’s Property Act of 1882 gave them the same rights over their own property as if they had been single or widowed.

This indenture was made on the 24th September, 1781, between Thomas William Coke, Esq, of Longford, Derby, and John Whiteley of Crompsall and refers to 26 acres of farming land in Lancashire and the payment of rent of £38.10.0. yearly. The beneficiaries appear to be three children - Ann Bowker (8 years), Hannah Bowker (6 years) and John Bowker (4 years). the children of Charles Bowker. (I hazard a guess these are the heirs of Thomas Coke). This indenture is I think of vellum and is in a fragile condition. The seal has damaged the document where it has been folded and there are some tears.
