Genealogy

Lord of Brampton

Hunter comments:Mr Alletson, tenant of the Lord's estate at Wickersley, told Mr Moult that he had heard that a William Lord had 2 sons, John and William, and a daughter Sarah. The eldest son was an irregular man, and the father left the bulk of his fortune to the younger son, who, dying without issue, left it to his sister, the wife of ? Clay of Normanton (as Mr A. thinks) ; the eldest son found a will or deed by which the estates were entailed, and by a Chancery Suit obtained a decree against Clay and wife. The present Wm Lord of Tupton is descended from this eldest son, 1805
