Spent Wednesday at The National Archives.  Now have copies of 6 Dorling litigation documents. 

One in 1624 names Nicholas Dorling of Harwich, mariner, whose testimony was needed before a debt could be paid.  The debt was to do with biscuit and bread value £20 which was sent to Virginia.




Two documents 1718-1720 concerning John Dorling of Burwell, Cambs and Richard Casburne.  This is a large document with a lot of writing to decipher!


A 1706 document where the defendant is Bunning Dalling - this is to do with a will on the Bunning side.

A 1727 document concerning property in the Bungay area, involving John Dalling senior, apothecary and John Dalling junior.

Another 1700s document concerning land in South Elmham involving the Bungay Dallings.
