This is a counterpart of Margaret Spence's jointure upon her marriage with John Newsome, dated 26 July 1695.
It was made between John Newsome the elder, yeoman of Langthorpe near Boroughbridge, and his son John Newsome the younger (1) and Richard Robinson, yeoman, and John Raper of Langthorpe, yeoman (2), and it was made in consideration of the marriage of John Newsome the younger and Margaret Spence, spinster of Ripon. Unfortunately, the deed is very worn at the point where it tells us whose daughter she was!
You can also see that somebody has removed the seals.
