Through a fascinating collection of inquisitions post mortem - official investigations into the estates of deceased individuals - the author unveils the lives, relationships, and landh…oldings of prominent families during the 15th century. The meticulous records, taken from the manuscripts of Christopher Towneley, offer a glimpse into the legal and social landscape of the era, revealing intricate genealogies, land transfers, and the intricacies of feudal inheritance.
