383

Exemplification of a common recovery dated 28th November 1503 between John Ulneston and others, including James Hobart the Attorney General and Thomas Lucas, Solicitor General for the Manor of Ulneston Hall in Suffolk, Document on vellum with an elaborate initial letter "H" featuring fine calligraphic floral devices, and a near complete copy of the seal of the Court of Common Pleas of Henry VII attached by the original vellum tag. The seal, in dark green wax depicts the King on his throne on the obverse and the Royal Coat of Arms on the reverse together with the legend "SIGILLVM PRO BREVIBV[S CORAM] IVSTICIARIIS" Extremely rare. Documents from the reign of Henry VII in such fine condition and still bearing the original seal are scarce. By this time England was becoming a settled state after the years of civil wars which Henry had effectively brought to an end with his victory over Richard III at Bosworth in 1485 and land transactions of this nature were able to be completed without fear of violent subsequent upheaval. (1) £600-800

1820-1950 LIVERPOOL/IPSWICH FAMILY ARCHIVE  General Description: This is a marvellous and large archive of 2 families one stemming from Liverpool and the other from Ipswich. The family in Liverpool are the Chappel-Gills. They were cotton merchants, who prospered in the mid Victorian period and became very wealthy, as this archive proves. The family from Ipswich were the Prettys, they owned a place called Goldrood Hall, several photos of it circa 1900-1910, which is now a school. The archive contains masses of personal photographs almost all inscribed with names etc, letters, some from the front from both of the first and second world wars, and newspaper cuttings and postcards from all over the world sent back home. The Chappel-Gills last lived in Montgomeryshire near Welshpool. There are newspapers dating from 1820. There is a super portfolio of a marriage held at Goldrood in the early part of the 20th century, real good photographs etc. The name Carey features throughout the years so they are connected. This is a unique record of a very wealthy family who flourished through the cotton trade. There are many addresses in the archive of where the various parts of the family lived and an amazing collection of photographs of the family on holiday skiing in the 1900-1920 period. The family were connected with the hunting world as there are many photographs of hunts and hounds in Montgomeryshire at Brywnderwen, Bwlch-y-cibau. They also lived at one time at 19 Greenheys Rd, Liverpool 8. Lot possibly includes 200 old postcards, most stamped, addressed and dated.
