Charlotte Story will (https://www.ancestry.co.uk/interactive/5111/40611_310381-00798?pid=85411&backurl=https://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv%3D1%26dbid%3D5111%26h%3D85411%26tid% 3D%26pid%3D%26usePUB%3Dtrue%26_phsrc%3DIUd2809%26_ phstart%3DsuccessSource&treeid=&personid=&hintid=&usePUB=true&_phsrc=IUd2809&_phstart=successSource&usePUBJs=true)
This is the will of Charlotte Story, nee Minshull, widow of George Story (sometimes Storey), daughter of John.
I can find neither birth nor marriage for Charlotte, I only know/suspect her father's name as I found a pedigree for the Story family, in The history and antiquities of the county palatine Of Durham Vol 1, which says her father was John Minshull of Bradley co. Chester.
Charlotte died in June 1822 and her husband, George in Feb 1822. I can not find a will for George.
In Charlote's will she mentions, if I read it correctly, that George Sampson, her son-in-law, holds some sort of annuity for her, there is somehing to do with money from a John Minshull of Swansea, Glamorgan (her father possibly) and something to do with a court case between Minshull and Drake.
The court case is interesting as her daughter, Maria, married a John Drake in 1805, although it could be a different family.
Googling John Minshull of Swansea Glamorgan shows a will for a death in 1822 but I can't tie it to Charlotte.
So I'd like any or all of the following answered:
1, her birth
2. her marriage
3. is the John Minshull in her will dead
4. any details about the court case
5. a will for husband George
6. any details about the funds held by George Sampson and John Minshull
Not sure if any of this is possible but thank you for reading this far.
