| Content Description | Records £1000 lent by the Earl of Newcastle Upon Tyne in 1639.
This is presumably the Marquess of Newcastle upon Tyne although according to existing records he was not created Marquess until 1643; however the dating of creations at that period is not certain due to loss of contemporary records; nor is it clear that the document dates from 1639 but may be a retrospective record of the loan. |
