Hi there, Im seeking help on an old Mortgage I am trying to research, it is dated
7th of May 1757 and is between Barrow Laurence & Robert Raikes ,Stationer & Printer of Gloucestershire and concerns property in the Lydney St Briavels area. The document is very large 85 by 70 cms and consists of 4 pages . my eyes are not so good now ,but Barrow Laurence appears to have lived in "Bream Lodge " and there is reference to a Lodge Manor Estate .Robert Raikes left Ladybellegate House in Glouster in 1757 the year he took over "The Gloucestershire Press" And I am trying to establish where he lived before his Marriage, any assistanch would be appreciated.
