To the Church-Wardens and Overseers of the Poor of the Parish of
Egloskerry in the said County of Cornwall and to the Church-Wardens
and Overseers of the Poor of the Parish of Laneast in the said
County and to each and every one of them.
Upon the Complaint of the Church-Wardens and the Overseers of the Poor
of the Parish of Egloskerry aforesaid in the said County of
Cornwall unto us whose Names are hereunto set, and Seals affixed, being
two of his Majesty’s Justices of the Peace in and for the said County of
Cornwall and one of us of the Quorum that
Mary Vosper
hath come to inhabit in the said Parish of Egloskerry not having
gained a legal Settlement there, nor produced any Certificate owning her
to be settled elsewhere and that the said
Mary Vosper hath been actually
chargeable to the said Parish of Egloskerry. We the said Justices
upon due Proof made thereof, as well upon the Examination of the said
Mary Vosper
upon Oath, as otherwise, and likewise upon due Consideration had of the
Premises, do adjudge the same to be true : And we do likewise adjudge
that the last lawful Settlement of the said
Mary Vosper
is in the Parish of Laneast in the said County of Cornwall.
We do therefore require you the said Church-Wardens and Overseers of the
Poor of the said Parish of Egloskerry or some, or one of you, to
convey the said
Mary Vosper
from and out of your said Parish of Egloskerry to the said Parish
of Laneast and deliver her to the Church-Wardens and
Overseers of the Poor there, or to some, or one of them, together with
this our Order, or a true Copy thereof, at the same Time shewing to them
the Original; and we do also hereby require you the said Church-Wardens
and Overseers of the Poor of the said Parish of Laneast to
receive her as an Inhabitant of your said Parish.
Given under our Hands and Seals the fourteenth Day of October
in the thirty fifth Year of the Reign of his said Majesty King
GEORGE the Third, and in the Year of our Lord One Thousand Seven Hundred
and ninety five.
