 Leche Family of Shipley Hall
replied on: 12/23/2004 2:50:42 PM
Sir Edward Leche, of Wrotham, Maidstone, Kent, bought the Hall on 23/03/1626.

On his death in 1649, his son, Sir William Leche, of Westerham, Kent, inherited it and passed it on to his son John Leche, who owned it from around 1682. He married Elizabeth Duke in 1689.

On his death, in May of 1704, his daughter - Hester Leche inherited the Hall, marrying a Miller, of Wrotham, c.1712. She became a widow in 1716.

Her daughter, Hester Miller, born 1714, inherited the Hall on 10/05/1719 and was probably aided in her early rule of the Hall by her Grandmother Elizabeth, who died in 1739.
She eventually married Edward Mundy on 24/01/1734.
