Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885), nephew of the poet William Wordsworth, was appointed headmaster of Harrow School in 1836 and was consecrated Bishop of Lincoln in 1869.

Lease and release was the most common method of conveying freehold property from the later seventeenth century onwards, before the introduction of the modern conveyance in the late nineteenth century. The lease was granted for a year (sometimes six months), then on the following day the lessor released their right of ownership in return for the consideration (the thing for which land was transferred from one party to another, usually, of course, a sum of money).

A marriage settlement was a legal arrangement which secured certain property for an intended wife and sometimes also for any children of an intended marriage.
