| Description | Case between Samuel Garnault, Joseph Garnault, Amy Gibson and Mary Magdalen Gibson against Peter Romilly, Walter Dench, Fenwick Lyddal, Thomas Cook, Susannah Cook, Bartholomew Nenny and Ann Delahaize Cook. Philip Delahaize stipulated in his will, that Mary Garnault, widow of Daniel Garnault should receive until her death, the dividends from £2000 to be invested in Government Securities. At her death, the sum would be divided equally between her children, with the exception of the eldest, Daniel Garnault, who should receive no shares. Mary Garnault died in April 1790 and left to her two surviving sons and two daughters, Samuel Garnault, Joseph Garnault, Amy Gibson and Mary Magdalen Gibson, the £2000, plus accrued interests, received from Philip Delahaize. The four siblings ask for the sum to be divided equally between them as per Philip Delahaize's will. |
