11.01.07 Deeds

Today we got the title deeds from the solicitor...8 months later! The dates start from 1916. The previous owners are as follows:

In 1916 George Youdan died and passed the property to James Thomas Everitt Baldwin and Edward Townsend Page who sold the property to Frederick Linley Womack for £1,900.

Frederick Linley Womack died in 1951 and then later his wife Rebecca died in 1954 and the house was passed to his daughter Freda Linley Womack.

Freda married in 1956 and sold the property for £1075 in 1961 to Alfred Edward Allenbone and Edith Elizabeth Allenbone.

Edith died in 1977 and Alfred died in 1981. The house was inherited by Joan Margaret White and Frank White.

They sold the house to Joan Briggs in 1981 for £19000.

Who then sold the house to us, for £159,950 because the house prices had risen! Which is quite amusing because it needed a huge amount of work doing to it! But that's the joy of living in Bawtry!
