SUMMARY OF DEEDS RELATING TO HAWARDEN WHEN OWNED BY THOMAS WILTON.

[In 1883 James Voisey, builder, had borrowed money on the security of the land in Southtown to build a house. In 1884 the house was described as "in the course of erection" by J. Voisey. The mortgages were for £400 to Dr. F.A.Dawson, £200 to R.W.Prideaux, solicitor, and £200 to E.H. Prideaux.]

29/9/1892 - Conveyance by J. Voisey of "Hawarden Villa" to Thomas Wilton, coal merchant, of Dartmouth, for £800. Mortages were repaid to Dawson, £400, Prideaux £200, and E.H.Prideaux, £200. The house is described as "lately built by James Voisey." (A piece of land to the south, known as Lucerne, had previously been sold by Voysey. This was later bought by Wilton.)

30/9/1892 - Mortgage: Thomas Wilton borrowed £600 from H. G. Bartlett @ 5½% on the security of Hawarden.

(In 1905 this mortgage was paid off.)

5/10/1915 - A piece of land adjoining to the south, known as Lucerne, was conveyed by John Stephens to Thomas Wilton for £620. (This appears to have been the site on which a billiard room was built, and is now converted into a separate dwelling.)

20/6/1921 - Conveyance by Sir Thomas Wilton of Hawarden to Dr. Horatio Sparrow for £2,000.
