From Millicent's will (more than £1000 bequests in 1843) she appears very well off and, as a housekeeper, she would not have earned that sort of money; so she must have inherited something. Three years after her death there is another document repaying a debt owed to her of £2,700. That is something like £ 1/4 million in today's money.
