Estate

24th October 1918 - 2nd October 1919

The administrator of Norford's estate is recorded as his sister Isabella M Knight (presumably the Isabella shown on census returns as being born around 1882, and now married). The register shows an initial amount of £68 14s 2d being paid out after 24 October 1918, and then his War Gratuity of £18 10s on 2 October 1919. These seem to be relatively substantial sums compared to others in the registers, presumably reflecting his increased pay as an NCO, and his length of service in the Territorial Force. The calculator at http://www.measuringworth.com/ukcompare/ suggests the total amount of £87 4s 2d this would be worth between £3,707 (on the basis of RPI) and £27,040 (on economic power) today.
