Papers transferred from the chambers of Master Robert Lee Mosse, who served in the Chancery Division of the High Court from 1930 until 1950. The records consist almost entirely of pedigrees arising from proceedings in connection with the administration of estates. One or two probates of wills and similar documents connected with the estates are also included.
