I'd love to see the letter Ann! where did you get it?
My book has arrived. 100pages. It has the memoranda book of James Bankes in it which will take some reading as it's old English! written Elizabethan times. it has asection on the state accounts1667-78; the Rentals 1668-77 and the Probate inventory of James Bankes. It's not bedtime reading but there are lots of references to Winstanleys which should be interesting.There's a map at the back of the land owned by William Bankes 1770 with houses marked. great stuff. I can try and scan it.
