_Partrige Family._--Can any of your readers inform me where I can see
the grant mentioned in the following _note_ taken from Strype's
_Ecclesiastical Memorials_, vol. iii. p. 542: "I find a grant to the
Lady Jane Partrige for life, of the manor of Kenne in Devon, of the
yearly value of 57l. 12s. 0-3/4d., but this not before April, 1553." Can
any of your readers tell me how to obtain access to a private act 1st
Mary, Sessio secunda. cap. 9., anno 1553, intituled, "An Act for the
Restitution in Blood of the Heirs of Sir Miles Partrige, Knight"? Strype
calls it an act for the restitution of the daughters of Sir Miles
Partrige, and I think he must be right, as I have primâ facie proof that
Sir Miles left no son. Were the debates on the acts of parliament
recorded in those days, and if so, how can they be seen?
