Note on Husband: Joseph WHITAKER - shared note

Came to Sicily in 1819 (aged17) after his brother's death. Made partner in the "firm" 2nd June 1851 In the Earl of Cardigan's list of rents due in 1823 he (or his father) owed 16/3 arrears of rent for 2 gardens and another £3/0/9 for 2 cottages and a garden - both at Woodchurch. His will made on 4 March 1884 at Palermo was proved on 7 Feb 1885 by his sons Benjamin Ingham W of Hesley Hall and John Arthur W of the Inner Temple and 5 Elvaston Place, Hyde Park. The gross value was £640390-19-4, which using the changes in the Retail Price Index is equivalent to £44,461,038.85 in 2005 values. He appointed his sons Benjamin Ingham, Joseph Isaac Spadafora, John Arthur and Joshua as his executors. To his wife he left £1000 (£70,000 in 2005 values) for her immediate use plus everything in his house at Palermo and at Villa Sophia and a life interest in both houses with the exception of the counting house and the storage space at Villa Sophia. To William Ingham he left his Englaish gold watch and chain and a set of diamond studs. He left £6,000 to Joshua to be used as an endowment for the English Church (equivalent to £415,000 in 2005 values). To his wife he left an annuity of 2,000 Italian Lire per annum to be paid to the Educatorio Whitaker at Ziza near Palermo - so long as she thinks it right to continue that payment. Once that happens the securities that provided the annuity should sink into his residuary estate. He left £50,000 (about 3.5 million at 2005 prices) to be invested to prvide an income for his wife. After hius wife's death this sum was to be split equally among his children except for William Ingham who had already been provided for. He had on 9 Dec 1860 set up a marriage settlement for his daughter Caroline of £10,000 7% Egyptian Government stock by his will he added another £30,000 to the setllement. He had on 17 Feb 1865 set up a marriage settlement for his daughter Sophia of £11,097 4s 6p in 3% Consolidated Bank Annuities by his will he added another £30,000 to the setllement.

These settlements are each worth a total approx £2,000,000 in 2005 values. To his Godson William Alexander Morrison £1,000 to be paid when & If he got to his 21st birthday. To his neice Sophia Sanderson £2,000
