Description:
Documents :
1. Bond dated
Bounden: Katherine Watkine of Michaechurch Eskley, and Lewis Pries of Michaelchurch Eskley, in the sum of £100.
2. Inventory: dated
Observations:
There is a note in Latin on the inventory that administration was granted to 'Catherine Watkin widow and relict' on
Inventory includes cattle, horses, sheep, poultry, 3 ac of corn growing on the premises, corn in the house threshed and un-threshed plus a list of debts due to the deceased.
There seems to be some confusion over the deceased's surname. Only the writer of the inventory calls him Watkin Rowland; both his wife and the surrogate who granted administration are clear that Watkin is the surname.
