Hi there,
I'm trying to work out what these place names are on a will drawn up in 1844. I was hoping it might give me a clue for browsing on the 1841 census!
It's the will of William Innell Clement, who owned The Observer, The Morning Chronicle, Bell's Life in London, etc.
At the time of his will being drawn up, three of his sons were surviving: William, George William and Charles. William seems to be the only legitimate son. He left his media empire to be divided between the three sons:

It looks like William was at Sutherland Square:

George William and Charles are at Cowley Place:


Or Gowley Place. Or Crowley Place? Or somewhere else entirely?!
I've tried searching by address on Find My Past. Cowley and Gowley Place yields nothing. There's a Crowley Place in Tonbridge in Kent, and that's it (I haven't looked it up yet as I don't have the ref for it). Sutherland Square doesn't come up either, so I thought I would ask you lovely people if you think I've read it properly!
And lastly:
I think the first part says "To my two sons Charles and George William in trust for their mother."
(which seems to add extra grist to the idea that they were illegitimate - surely if they were legitimate, this would be "to my wife").

But the second bit:
"To ? Joseph Worrad (Worral?) of Walsall in trust for his sister Mary Ann."
I can't work out what that second word is after 'to' ('sir'?). Or indeed what his surname is!
Anyone have any ideas?
(PS: I've found 170 Strand on a few censuses and none of the Clements live there. It's usually empty or in one case someone does live there, a man with his wife and a servant, and he's a printer compositor. When I googled the address, it kept coming up with some of William's newspapers and then it came up with engravings from books published from the same address - so I do wonder if it wasn't actually a house and was in fact newspaper/publishing offices. When William was buried, it has two addresses - one in Hackney and the Strand address. Another Clement tree has his death in 1852 at the address in Hackney but when I looked it up on the 1851 census, he wasn't living there. He did die suddenly though so maybe he was visiting someone who lived there.... anyway, that's all a side issue...!)
