Miscellaneous vouchers from the Welsh and Irish estates of the Ormsby Gore family, Barons Harlech (Watermark 1828)-1887, found at NLW after the cataloguing of the main groups was complete (!) Some bundles relate separately to the Glyn estate in Merioneth and Caernarfonshire, Cemais and Penrhos in Montgomeryshire, or the Irish estates in Sligo, Leitrim, Roscommon and Westmeath; other bundles contain a combination of these and the Brogyntyn estate in Shropshire and Denbighshire. The presence of original labels and wrappers suggests that these groupings, though irregular, are genuine. Some bundles contain several smaller packets inside, in which the individual items were once numbered; many of the numbers are missing or out of sequence. Some packets are conveniently labelled by the agent’s name or by category. Typically the contents comprise large numbers of bills and receipts for estate labour and wages, agents’ remittances, building materials, ironmongery, farriery, provisions, stationery, freight of goods by railway, repairs to estate properties and school buildings, marsh drainage, forestry plantations, surveys and valuations, legal expenses, poor rates, highway rates, land tax, property tax, income tax, the grand jury cess (Ireland), quit rents, crown rents, chief rents, tithe rents, insurance, and subscriptions to schools, churches, clothing clubs, other charities and freemasons, together with some accounts and covering letters by the collectors and agents. There are particularly large numbers of poor rate receipts from the unions of Tobercurry, Sligo, Mohill, Bawnboy, Carrick-on-Shannon, Granard, Strokestown and Swinford, Ireland. One file in this series (72/3) contains the papers of John Edward Parry, agent of the Glyn estate, 1856-1876
