The Washington Tribune reports the death of Witham Jenners at his London residence on July 19 1798. Born 1700 and godfather to King Witham III, he never married and accumulated vast wealth. His real estate valued at 10 million dollars with ten years of undrawn dividends, and personal property split to William Lygon and the Viscountess Dowager Andover after probate disputes. A chancery suit in 1810 pursued his heirs and legal representatives amid Anglo American claims in the Jenners estate case.
