The group comprises legal papers arising from court cases, mostly Chancery proceedings, 1672-1928, rules for court procedures, 1764, and papers resulting from disputes which did not take place in court, such as arbitration awards and agreements, 1677-1839, mainly concerning difficulties over title and encumbrances on properties such as Cae'rberllan and Cwyber in the late seventeenth century, Tyddyn Glan y Ffynnon and Gwaun Dwysog in the mid eighteenth century, and with problems of inheritance, for example, following the death of John Griffith (2) of Garn in 1758.
