The dates listed below have different categories as denoted by the letters in the brackets following each date. Here is a key to explain those letter codes:
|
|
1781 [EA] - 1781 [LA] → Previous owner
There is ambiguity as to whether 'Estate of Thomas Cargill' in the Accounts Produce implied that he was dead or simply that Stoakes Hall belonged to him, but late indentures suggest he sold the estate to Eliphalet Fitch sometime before 1802. |

Brother-in-law → Sister-in-law

Husband → Wife
