???? - 1816
Youngest daughter of Richard Welch of Hyde estate in Jamaica. Inherited 拢2000 in the will of her father (proved 1809). She came to an agreement over payment of her legacy, presumably converting it into a mortgage on the estate. Died October 1816 at East Cowes.
St Thomas-in-the-Vale no. 294; memorial from William Lewis George Thomas and Robert Lewis Fitzgerald 09/04/1835: their wives were daughters of Richard Welch esq. formerly Chief Justice, Hyde estate left by will for payment of legacies of 拢2500 each to his younger children after payment of annuity to widow (who died in 1813). A son, also Richard, died in 1809. A third daughter Flavell [?= Favel] died intestate, her remaining sisters each shared 拢500 of her portion; the youngest daughter Georgina died unmarried, so her property went equally to 2 surviving sisters. So each had 拢4500, received interest at 5% until 1831, since then arrears have accumulated.
