Title: | Probate Collection; Bond and documents for Samuel Watkins, gent |
Place name: | Longtown |
Date: | 1676 |
Description:
1. Bond dated
Bounden: Richard Morgan, gent, of Clodock & Thomas Roberts of [undecipherable]
2. Inventory: dated
Observations:
Documents include a separate coversheet, 3 sheets in all. It is difficult to see why, with such a small value inventory, it took almost a year from Inventory taking to probate. This is an interesting inventory in that the deceased's clothing was worth as much as 5 guineas and his horse £6, it also lists a sword and belt one of very few inventories mentioning weapons.
