This Release Indenture relates to the lease between Robert Hare and his mother Margaret dated 14 Sep 1770, summarised above.
As page 3 of this MSS is missing it has not been transcribed.

The lease and release was the most popular and widespread way to record simple sales of property from the seventeenth century up to 1845. The lease and release format was also used to convey property for the purposes of mortgages and settlements. The 'lease' and the 'release' are two separate documents.

Robert next married Henrietta HENCKELL [3540] [MRIN: 1211].
