Most of the estate had been bought out by tenants in 1903, and in 1934 he sold the remainder of the estate, which included Pallas Mansion, built on a twelve-acre site and with some five hundred acres of an estate, by his ancestor in the early 18th century. Pamela (born 1921) served as Section Officer in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force during World War II.
