Memorandum book, 1848-1856, of John Naylor (1813-1889) of Leighton Hall, near Welshpool, the estate he inherited on his marriage in 1846 (see, for example: https://www.leightonnews.com/2013/the-history-of-the-naylor-family-of-leighton-hall/). The inside front cover is inscribed in the hand of Captain Thomas Humphrey Naylor (1890-1966) of Ashton, near Chester, grandson of John Naylor of Leighton Hall, and in the hand of Thomas Humphrey's son, Richard Christopher Naylor of Ellesmere, Shropshire, the donor of the additional papers described here. This item forms part of the 'proof of evidence' submitted by architectural historian Teresa Sladen (see under Evidence with regard to the historic importance of Leighton Hall).
