John Ingle

John Ingle was an attorney for Cambridge University, coroner for the County of Cambridgeshire, and clerk to the general meeting located in Trumpington Street (Holden’s [1805]: 2.49).  He was the nephew of John Gifford, who in 1771 purchased, along with Ebenezer Hollick, Sr., of Whittlesford, the Wimbish manor in the parish of Shepreth, located between Cambridge and Royston.   Gifford became lord of the manor by 1775, and upon his death in 1795 the estate passed to Ingle, which he maintained until his death in 1832.  See C.
