History
Charles Morgan and John Morgan were guardians of Ann Jemima Butler (1760-1812) and Patty Butler (1760-1838), infant daughters and coheiresses of James Butler (c.1738-1775) and Martha his wife, née Dolben (c.1734-1776). James and Martha’s clandestine marriage in 1756 had resulted in a protracted legal case, only abandoned when James reached his majority. Ann Jemima and Patty married the brothers Roger Clough (1759-1833) and Richard Clough (1753-1784), the sons of Hugh Clough of Plas Clough (1709-1760). Roger sold the Sussex estate to buy Bathafarn in his own county (‘Clough of Plas Clough’, DWB): articles of agreement for the sale of Warminghurst estate from the Rev. Roger Clough and Ann Jemima, his wife, and Roger Butler Clough, their eldest son, to Charles, duke of Norfolk, for £70,000, 14 Jan 1805, with a mortgage of Warminghurst estate, 7 Aug. 1805, and final release, 24 Nov. 1806 (among Arundel MSS. D 2532-2574); articles of agreement for the purchase and sale of the mansion, park, and demesne called Bathafern Park with all its appurtenances from Lord William Beauclerk to Rev. Roger Clough, for the sum of £70,000, 16 Nov. 1805 (NLW, Bathafarn & Llanbedr 299 et seq.).
