This extensive collection comprises legal papers and probate documentation relating to the clients of Gray, Dodsworth & Co, over at least three centuries. Clients were not solely York-based, and the papers relate to a wide geographical area across northern England and London predominantly, including papers on local manors. The collection has been catalogued in the order in which it was found, with bundles of documents catalogued together to maintain the original order. In some cases, this means that the inter-relationship between the documents in a bundle is currently unknown.

Please note that numbers GDC/26, GDC/35-38, GDC/134-135 and GDC/188 were not used.

Please see series, file and item level descriptions for more detailed information about the contents of this collection.
