Solicitor's files

Solicitors' clients' papers unrelated to the Tredegar estate. Most of the papers relate to the administration of the estate of Thomas John Evans of Glancelyn, dec., by his executors, Henry F. W. Harries of Brecon, solicitor, and Major Henry John Archibald Evans of Chalcombe House, Banbury, Oxfordshire, 1892-1928. The connection between these papers and the Tredegar estate is that H. F. W. Harries also acted as the agent for the Tredegar Breconshire estate. The papers include items dated 1928, so were swept into the Breconshire estate records after that date, presumably when the Breconshire estate office was finally closed and the records sent to the Newport office. The papers mainly comprise vouchers and related papers, including paying rates and tithes in the parishes of Glyn and Defynnog in Breconshire, and Slebech and Wiston in Pembrokeshire, and receiving moneys out of the Barry Estate Co. Ltd and the Merthyr Tudful glebe estate in Glamorgan, the Colby estate, Pembrokeshire, and dividends from various companies, mainly railway companies. The beneficiaries of the estate appear to have been Rev. John James Evans (d. by Feb. 1924), Mary Dorothes Jame Evans, Eleanor Mote Evans and Major H. J. A. Evans. -- Although the remaining two files relate to Cardiff and Roath, 1914-1931 (P 5/6/20-21), Henry F. W. Harries acted in the case of P 5/6/20, and the papers probably came from his office.
