The Lloyd Family Guy Lloyd was
the eldest surviving son of Richard Lloyd, chief Justice of Ireland, and had
an ancestral estate at Croghan in Ireland. On his death he was followed by his
eldest son, another Richard, who held his first court in 1768. He gambled the
Bylaugh estate away to Sir John Lombe. Legend has it that Sir John Lombe
bribed Lloyd's butler to get his master drunk. Richard Lloyd
moved to Bawdeswell Hall, the property of his wife Elizabeth, and he died in
1811. |
