1804 Geo Wilce,Henry,Maryann,GeorgeElizabeth

Mr Geo Wilce in his life time purchased of Lord and Lady Grenville an estate in the parish of St Kew, Cornwall for 99 years determinable on three lives of his own nomination, and paid down part of the purchase money, at the time the contract was made -

Mr Wilce soon after died, having just made his will, dated 12^th June 1804, and thereby gave one moiety of the same estate to his son Henry, and the other moiety thereof to his daughter Maryann and in consideration thereof decided his son and daughter shall pay certain legacies to his brothers but without charging the estate therewith he also decided his daughter Maryann shall pay an annuity of £6 and charged the estate therewith. And (after several other specific devises and bequests) all the rest of his worldly goods – he gave to his son George, which he made whole and sole executor. And the said testator nominated and appoints Mr Tickle Esquire and Nicholas Thomas in trust to pay all the legacies before men? And fulfilling all his last will and testaments a copy of the will is left herewith.

It is believed that Lady Grenville has generally objected to join his Lordship in the execution of such leases, but whether from that, or any other cause, it is not known the leases however were not executed till within the last year, when Mr George Wilce the resiverary legatee and executor under his fathers will, was called upon to pay the remaining part of the purchase and money, together with interest thereof, from the time the contract was made amounting to about £140 and he hath accordingly paid the same his father in his life time, and his brother Henry and sister Elizabeth have had possession, and received the rents and profits of the estate up to this time.

How far Mr George Wilce is liable to pay the interest on the unpaid purchase money, or whether the estate or Henry and Elizabeth are not liable to pay it.

You will please to advise Mr George Wilce hereon.
