Papers of the Gladwin Family, 1428-1891

0.78 metres (1 archives box + 3 large folios)
Abstract Or Scope
This collection is a typical family assemblage of legal documents beginning in the early fifteenth century and relating to the Gladwin Family's holdings in the Manors of Nettswell and Northweld in Essex, England. The Gladwins disposed of their holdings when they came to Australia in the mid-nineteenth century, but brought the documents with them. The documents survived much travel with the family in Australia over the last hundred years. They are in excellent condition, beautifully written, and are good examples of the kind of manorial court documents of title held by "copyholders" or "tenants", of which there are very few if any, examples in Australia.
