Description

Trusts administered by members of the Grehan family: for example, George Grehan administered trust. Includes letters from Sister M Alexia, Sisters of Charity, St Vincent's Convent, St Mary's Road, Cork concerning the mistaken annual payment made since 1885 of 10 guineas under the will of George Grehan to their Magdalen laundry. They have recently had to provide for the Government details of all bequest and legacy's and so discovered the money was actually meant for the Sisters of Charity, Hospitals for Incurables. Mr Roche, the solicitor, confused the two.

Includes under the title Baldwin Trust, a file relating to the estate of Mary Anne Baldwin, widow, nee Grehan, of which George Grehan is executor.
