A group of deeds principally concerned with the estate of the Manley family in the parish of Erbistock, Denbighshire. According to some published sources, Francis, Roger and John Manley were all sons of Sir Richard Manley, comptroller of the household of Henry, prince of Wales. However, these deeds show that Francis was the son of Cornelius Manley (died c.1623) and his wife Mary, daughter of Francis Lloyd of Hardwick, Shropshire. He married Dorothy, daughter of Sir Gerard Eyton of Eyton Isaf. Cornelius, their heir, married Elizabeth Spark of Bury St Edmunds in 1670 and they had several issue. Francis, their eldest surviving son, died without issue and in 1729 Thomas, brother of Francis, was in possession of the estate. He had three children, all of whom died without issue. Prior to 1811, the estate was bequeathed by Mrs Rebecca Lawrence, daughter of Thomas Manley, to Isaac George Manley, a descendant of John Manley. The printed schedule includes a family tree compiled using published sources, including Burke's Landed Gentry, and unpublished sources comprising the bishops transcripts for the parish of Erbistock, and documents and papers relating to the Manley family which were acquired with these deeds, and which are now NLW MS 22730E. The deeds were purchased in February 1987 from Henry Sotheran Ltd. For a group of related deeds, see NLW Deeds 1344-1372.
