DETAILED CONVEYANCE HISTORIES AND LINKED PEDIGREES
============================================================================
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOLDER 1 | 1851 - 1913
Earl of Powis, title-holder not individually identified in the cited Alderton manor descriptions
Person: https://manorialregistry.com/?mhr_person=earl-of-powis-27511
Transfer: Earlier acquisition by the Powis interest is unknown. The manor is directly attested as being in the hands of the Earl of Powis in 1851, with the same lordship repeated in 1895 and 1913; no intervening conveyance or later historical holder was securely identified.
Previous holder: Unknown
Holding arrangement: sole
Share / interest: Described as lord of the manor and sole proprietor or sole landowner
Shared holding: Powis estate
Narrative / explanation: This is a documented period of lordship rather than a reconstructed legal conveyance. Bagshaw's 1851 directory states that the Earl of Powis was lord of Alderton Manor and sole proprietor. Kelly's 1895 directory and a 1913 directory repeat that the Earl of Powis was lord of the manor and sole landowner. Because the sources use the title rather than naming an individual Earl and do not describe the acquisition or any succession in relation to Alderton itself, the holder is retained as Earl of Powis and no inferred transfer between individual Earls is recorded.
