Strafford, William, 2nd Earl
MSS accounts for ?1647, written under the direction of (and likely by) the Earl for the management of his estates, 6th May 1648. One sheet, folded in half (and smaller), MSS on two sides, faded but legible. The estates in question were restored to the 2nd Earl with Charles I's overturning of the forfeiture which has resulted with the 1st Earl ("Black Tom")'s attainder for treason. William came into his majority in 1647, but fled to France after the Civil War.
With two large mounted prints of the family seat, Wentworth Castle, and a later strike after Fisk's Trial of Strafford from the Thomas Ross Collection. [4]
