Description

Chancery is all about money and disputes, often within the family and the details can be a goldmine for genealogists and family historians. Susan Moore takes us on a journey through Chancery records, visiting the National Archives at Kew and some of the delights to be found in the records. She explains what different records exist (there are many types including master's reports, affadavits and more), where to find them and shares stories she has discovered with some cases that lasted for decades. The interview transcript is on Substack alongside a second shorter interview about Francis Drake and his Walton upon Thames Manor House and the chancery case involving this (and a lot of other people!)
