Hi,
The Will of Edward Lomas 1801 states

I give and devise unto my son in law Richard Glossop and my daughter Dorothy now his wife  -goes on to describe property etc.,  TO HOLD TO THEM FOR AND DURING THEIR NATURAL LIVES AND THE LIFE OF THE LONGER LIVING OF THEM.  It then goes on to state who gets the property


Dorothy THE LONGER LIVER could not leave the property in a will because she never owned. 

On her death the property would be divided as per the will of Edward Lomas - it was to go the children born by Dorothy     either Walker or Glossop.

May we worth looking in newspapers after Dorothy dies, assume the property would be sold.

Hope this assists

Hi,
If you intend visiting this year, most record offices allow you to photograph documents the cost is about £6 per day for this.

Possibly an easy way to see what each record office hold is to do the following using the link below:-

https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/

Enter only the Surname - Farrell in the search box
Do not enter any dates
Click on box "Held By" and from drop down list select "other archives only"

You are now presented with  a list of results.  On the left hand side  you can select date but more importantly which record office hold records in which Farnell is mentioned.

Suggest you select date   1700 - 1799, and Leicester.   Click Refine.

You now have all documents held by Leicestershire, making a list of which you wish to examine
you can then make an appointment at this record office and pre-order the documents. This can then be repeated for Derbyshire etc.

Do you have access to either Ancestry or Findmypast?
