Yes, that is very true but the text was written by the seller not the newspaper!

Alan Boyd,

No, they gave me the owners names and dates from the item in 1821 when he was the buyer and then the names and dates of subsequent buyers until it was bought by Vaux themselves

Neville, I’ve just amended my question, but to save you checking: if George Ornsby bought it in 1821 why was John Newton paying rent to his father Capt Ornsby in 1802? Would this be George Ornsby buying it back after his father had sold it to John Newton some time after 1802?

There have been two George Ornsbys mentioned in connection with these properties

Wills of both men are to be found here:
https://familyrecords.awh.durham.ac.uk/nei/data/simple.php

and though I've only had a quick glance through I think George Ornsby of Lanchester Lodge is very possible to be the nephew of Captain George Ornsby.

I've run out of time but thought I'd post in case someone else has time to look.

Boo is correct, Captain George Ornsby was not George Ornsby's father.

According to the genealogy here–
https://archive.org/details/historyantiquiti00long/page/n537/mode/2up?q=ornsby

—if I am interpreting it correctly:

Henry Ornsby of Lanchester (1706-1747) had two sons:

George Ornsby of Lanchester (1736-1809); this is Captain Ornsby, no children.
Henry Ornsby of Darlington (1739-1806) ; this was the father of George Ornsby of Lanchester Lodge.

Tickettyboo and AlanBoyd,

I stand corrected.  I had not realised there were two men named George Ornsby

Do have a look at those wills Neville, , from what little I saw of the Captain George one which seemed to confirm he was the uncle of the Lanchester Lodge one, I also got the feeling that Capt George had left property in Lanchester to this nephew of his - but  we were due to go out so I couldn't look properly.
