Lookup Request - Bankruptcy File 1806 - National Archives

[Revolution]

Hi

I was wondering if anyone would be able to look up the following file for me in the National Archives in Kew, Richmond, Surrey. Please note its a big file of about 92 pages. Theres no hurry for the request. John Potts Halbert would be my 5th great grand uncle. Two other Halberts - Alice and her son George were also bankrupt at this time 1806 but I havent found a file for them nor anything to link the bankruptcies. Ive found plenty of newspaper stories about the fallout of the bankruptcies but not what caused them.

Many thanks in advance from Australia

Have you requested an estimate for copying that document?

Hi

Yes I did. From memory about 95 pounds so no discount for larger files

Researchers in and around London who visit TNA are few and far between, you may have a bit of a wait.
