Elizabeth Browne widow, John Harpur, Wistow and Newton Harco

In the BHO account of Wistow and Newton Harcourt here
http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report ... mpid=22077

they give accounts of the passing of the Manor of Wistow and state
obliquely that the advowson was seperated and the passing obscure or
whatever.

They seem to be missing this document, which greatly assists in tying
this Browne family into others closely connected to Richard Cecil i.e.
the Harpurs of Swarkston
