Description
Description: General Title Volume 1. pp460 folio with added typescript index. Label reads 'for Sir T. Odell Bt.'
Note: In 1610 James I ordered the Great Twelve Livery Companies to undertake the settlement, or plantation, of the Ulster counties of Derry and Tyrone. The lands to be settled were divided into lots. The Skinners' Company drew lot number 12. Its lands came to be known as the Manor of Pellipar. The formal conveyance was made after the King had granted the Charter that created the city and county of Londonderry in 1613. The deed, dated 22 March 1617, granted the Manor of Pellipar, and all profits arising out of it, to the Skinners' Company, to hold "to the only use and behoof of the said maister, wardens, and comunaltie of the misterie of the Skinners of London, their successors and assigns for ever". The Company finally sold its lands in Ireland in 1912.
