Christopher Fletcher left money in his will to his cousins. A court case was necessary to determine who was entitled to a legacy and this book details some of the resulting genealogical research. The first pedigree is that of the Fletchers, and the second the descendants of Christopher Moor who married Elizabeth Nicholson and whose daughter Dinah married William Nicholson. pp48-64 detail what was discovered William Nicholson's descendants.
