Burroughs Esq Robert Thurston of Hempnall, charged with stealing, at divers times, a large quantity of apples, two dozen glass bottles, about two coombs (a coombe was a twelve stone sack) of oats and other articles the property of Lawson Scarnell.

Apparently you can bequeath a copyhold farm in a will but I think now that Lawson Scarnell's farm was a Freehold and was sold and the money distributed to three surviving children and the children of Christmas Fryer and his deceased wife Lucy Fryer nee Scarnell..Hence the Admon etc signed by Christmas Fryer

Turkey Row Cottage, Turkey Row, Road Green Silver Green/Lundy Green Hempnall believed to once have been the farmhouse of Christmas Fryer and his wife Lucy..They rented about ten acres from Robert Riches of Hempnall and were there in the 1841 census "on the Green" which in those days meant Broad Green but now is Turkey Row....
