Materials pertaining to the sale of land and effects held by the extended Kirwan family.

Legal documents and associated papers, mainly generated by the firm of solicitors, E and G Stapleton, in connection with the purchase of the Belvoir estate by the Land Commission over a 10 year period. John Wilson Lynch began the process by filing a petition in the Land Court in early 1909 for the sale of the lands settled in the deed of 12 August 1864. After the death of their father, William Wilson Lynch and his brother Thomas David Wilson Lynch came to an agreement in 1912, whereby William would have the Belvoir estate in exchange for releasing Thomas from various charges William held on the Duras estate, and by taking the additional surname of Wilson. Once William Wilson Lynch's ownership of the estate was established the sale advanced. A schedule of tenancies was produced in mid-1916 and the Land Commission offered to buy the estate for £18,401. William Wilson Lynch bought back the Belvoir demesne for £4,574. In 1917 the Land Commission refused to issue a Request to the Land Court for the sale of the estate as there was insufficient land available to divide among the tenants. William Wilson Lynch then consented to give up a portion of the lands he held and the estate was sold to the Land Commission in Jan 1922. [See also LE6/B/61-62, and B/482].
