The sale provoked some difficulties with uncle Thomas Pepys, who had a reversionary interest in the estate … There would appear to have been further difficulty (not resolved by 1676) in determining Robert Pepys' title -- if this is the 'Barton business' referred to in Family Letters , pp. 12, 24, 45.
