Thrugh-stone of HUNTER, HOWE, MORRIS families, Irvine Old Parish Kirkyard


Her estate was confirmed in Irvine, Ayrshire, on 25 September 1894 with James Howe Morris appointed executor but was complicated by its geographic spread - although confirmed in Irvine, 25 Sep 1894 with a value of £1202/10/8, it had a confirmation seal in London (4 Oct 1894) and was further sealed in the Dunedin, New Zealand courts (1 Mar 1895).
The NZ records are a copy of the Scottish testament dative and show her estate consisted of cash, furniture and effects at May Cottage, rent from six houses in Irvine and debentures in Dalgety Ltd (held in England). It is also noted that her brother in New Zealand (Arthur) held other invested funds and she had an interest in a property in Manitoba - both being inherited from her brother Alexander.16,8,13,17
