• Notes

  William Fendall (will proved 1813) was a barrister and banker in Gloucester, being a partner in the Old Bank (4) and an investor in the Bullo Pill Railway (5). His will shows that he and his siblings, John, Mary & Harriett, were recipients of annual payments from the High Court of Chancery under the terms of the case of 'Fendall v. Nash', which dealt with legacies left to minors by the will of a bankrupt (6). Separately named in the will are William's married sisters Mary Newton and Harriett Moultrie who both married at St Marylebone, London, in 1788 and 1799 respectively. There's an indication that Harriett was born at Matson, Gloucestershire, about 1769 (7) ... and Matson is where William was living when he wrote his will. 4 VCH Gloc Vol 4 5 His will TNA Prob 11/1550 6 Fendall v Nash, V. 197, n. 7 IGI
