History
The Lea Hall estate in Preston Gubbals, Shropshire, belonged to Richard Clayton. He married Mary, widow of Robert Jeffreys, daughter of Robert Griffith of Brymbo, Wrexham. Mary was widowed by the death of Richard Clayton in 1724, but she married again to Arthur Owen of Brogyntyn in 1727. However, Arthur died in 1739 followed by his brother and administrator, Lewis, in 1746, so the task of administration fell to his other brother, William Owen. Protracted legal disputes ensued between the families over the administration of the estates of Richard Clayton and Arthur Owen. Part of the Lea Hall estate was disposed of c. 1724 and William Owen appears to have sold a portion of the Wrexham property in 1765.
