Scope and content

Papers deriving from lawsuits and other legal issues involving the Pryse and Loveden family, Lewes of Abernantbychan and Parry of Noyadd Trefawr, 1672-1891. Some of the disputes concern properties that were subject to coal mining activities.. Two of the cases involve Walter Pryse of Painswick, in dispute with John Philipps of Kilgetty over land in Saundersfoot, 1701-1743, and with Francis Meyricke over the title to Vadson, Pembrokeshire, 1740-1748. Other cases concern claims to the estate of David Parry of Noyadd Trefawr, deceased, 1725, the leases of Trevane and Hopshill, 1806-1810, and a boundary dispute at Rhosddu which appears to have been settled by agreement, 1891
