Thanks, Phoenix and Kate.

I thought the folio no. was 480 but the edge of the page is cut off on the image.

I have been amusing myself with a notorious family Chancery case involving the Purser, Jeffcoat and other families. William Naylor made an affidavit in 1876 which explains in great detail the family relationships. His mother was Mary Jeffcoat (a Quaker) before her marriage.

One of his daughters was called Evelyn Mary and she married Charles Morland Agnew, who founded the Evelyn Hospital at Cambridge.

Hospital facts

Nuffield Health Cambridge Hospital was acquired by the Nuffield Health Hospitals Group in 2003. It was built in 1921, on land owned by Cambridge University's Trinity College, at a cost of £27,000 by a philanthropic fine art dealer, Charles Morland Agnew, and named The Evelyn Hospital after his wife. Charles and Evelyn's ashes are buried in the hospital grounds under a stone monument which is dedicated to them.

Today the hospital has 46 beds and four operating theatres for major and minor surgery. It employs 120 permanent staff and accommodates the practices of 200 consultants working across a broad range of disciplines. The hospital's main specialties include the care and treatment of cancer, orthopaedic surgery and ENT and general surgery.
