10. History of a Marriage by Barbara Argles. This is an account of their childhoods, marriage and life together put together in the form of a scrap book. Unfortunately the photocopies of letters have deteriorated, not helped by the scanning. This is the second of 4 volumes, the originals being in the possession of Peter Argles
11. Wates family chattels. A list of chattels with photos and descriptions which had belonged to Leslie and Lucy and which the family recorded as "heirlooms". They were originally in a trust formed in 1987 but this was brought to an end in 2023 and this list records the present owners. They come from both the Wates family and the Ainsworth/Willway family.
