The history of the family has become an area of great interest, yet
the property arrangements entered into upon marriage, a crucial
aspect of the process of familial wealth transmission and
distribution in the landed classes in early modern England, have
never been systematically studied. In the light of evidence
provided by hitherto unused family muniments, Dr Bonfield analyses
the legal, social and economic aspects of these settlements, and
discusses the development and impact of the strict settlement.
