No... a mix of Wills, Deeds, Marriage Settlements which often give land to Groom, for example, with conditions!

e.g  If wife dies childless Property returns to wife's family....   ;D

Well at least I have some idea how to use it now, unlikely any of my lot are there but I can at least have a look now.
Thank you very much.

Think I found an entry in the index for  De Penthony O’Kelly as O'Kelly John de P, so at least I have an idea how it's written in the index so can see if there is anything useful to find.


The Trustees of Wilsons Hospital I have a feeling won't be fun to find but I'll stick with the O'Kelly de P for now.
