Why not talk to the relevant County Record Office to see if they have any more info. They may be able to point you in the right direction. Maz. XX

Hi Louise Depending on the age of the document there may or may not be a specific address. It may just say something like land and messuages in a vague location which might not be particularly easy to trace without a plan. Is it a typed paper document or handwritten on folded vellum/parchment ? Does it have blue Revenue seals and wax seals with signatures? Sue

Hello - why don't you post some of the "vague" details on here and someone might recognise the address - there must be an address of some sort on the document - give it a try and see what comes up. Failing that, the Land Registry might be able to help you (depending on how old the document is). Jacqui
