Chaddock of Burnham Westgate, William Chaddock of Dartford, Kent, Ann
Chaddock of South Creake and Robert Chadwick of Norwich - apparently
christened Chadwick by mistake when baptised at Burnham Sutton in 1766. On offer here are the 4 receipts (2 made

[Eglinton
Family document covering 70 Years] Abstract
of Title to Propty in Diss, Part Freehold, Part Copyhold This
1870 abstract gives details of deeds and documents going back to 1800 when
John Eglinton paid £230 for a shop in Drapery Row in the market place at
Diss. This had ceased to be a shop by
1824 when he mortgaged it for £250.
The mortgage was paid off in 1826 and the property immediately sold to
Solomon Eglinton for £600. As well as
the shop, which was freehold, came a stable and stallage which were
copyhold. In the transcript of the copyhold
paperwork is recorded the fact that Solomon was the son of John, who died in
1848. Solomon died in 1870 and left
the property to his widow Ann on condition she sold it, and it is the
imminent putting up for sale of the property which prompted this abstract. Nice clean document in manuscript on 12
large paper sheets. (ref 3263) |

A paper
document containing 42 pages of handwritten text relating to properties in
Norfolk. It is a "Release Of An Estate" between The Right Honourable
Caroline Hans, Dowager Lady Suffield of Norfolk; The Right Honourable John
William Robert Kerr, Earl of Ancram, son and heir apparent of the Marquis of
Lothian; and Sir Robert John Buxton of Shadwell Lodge in the Parish of
Rushford in Norfolk, Baronet. There are lots of names mentioned throughout
this document such as: the Earl of Buckinghamshire, Earl of Mount Edgecumbe,
Lord Brownlow, Marchioness of Londonderry, Sir Richard Heron, Joseph Dixie
Churchill and Lewis Duval of Lincolns Inn, Middlesex. There are far too many
to list here. The document also refers to numerous previous indentures,
agreements, Acts of Parliament, Court of Chancery decisions etc. This is a
goldmine of information for anyone willing to explore it fully. The final
page of the document is torn but this is basically page 43 and therefore the
condition doesn't affect the main body of text. All other pages are in good
condition apart from slight ageing round the page edges. The writing is much
clearer than it appears in the photo. There are no seals on the document. |
