From the Miscellaneous Deeds and Wills Collection at The Rooms:

Indenture Robert Bolland to Wm Carter and John Williams May 31, 1806 GN169 3-287

Vol. 3, Page 287

This document involves William Carter in another of many property transactions on record. Apparently Robert Boland owed £100 to William Carter and John Williams (son of Lt. Col. George Williams and Mary Monier - a daughter of Dr. John Monier) and put his property (not clearly defined in the indenture) on the line as a security until payment plus 5% interest was paid.


Vol. 8, Page 499

This is an extremely complicated five page transaction, made complicated no doubt deliberately by the Justice of the Vice-Admiralty Court (Carter) to cover up what is in reality an unconscionable profit he is making from this series of purchases and sales. What transpired in as brief terms as are possible is that two women, Elizabeth and Ann Williams of Woolwich, Kent, England, sold a property and buildings that they owned on Kings Road in St. John's to Johnathan Ogden, Chief Justice of Newfoundland for £170 in June 1803. Ogden in turn sold the same property to William Carter for the same amount of money six months later (i.e. no profit made by Ogden). Now, in 1814, John Williams (relationship to the two ladies not stated) agrees to buy back the property from Carter for £500! A tidy profit of £330 in 11 years during a period of zero inflation. And lest anyone get the idea that this is a huge piece of real estate, it is described as having a frontage of 92' and a depth varying between 52' and 62' -- in other words a small building lot by today's standards. There were no flies on the wily Judge Carter!

Indenture Wm Carter to John Williams 9 Sept 1815

Three is a degree of uncertainty as to the identity of the three parties to this indenture other than William Carter. But since John Williams, the son of Lt. Col. George Williams and Mary Monier, is involved in another indenture with William Carter, and since he had a sister named Anne in England and a sister-in-law who would be known as Elizabeth Williams, I believe that this must be the family in question.
