Old legal documents

in Mortgages & endowments
Hello,

I have acquired around 100/150 old legal documents dating from early 1800's to early 1900's. They include mortgage documents as well as wills, deeds etc. I was wondering if anyone on here knew of any places that would be interested in buying these documents?

Any help is appreciated - many thanks.

    Do any of them contain anything of interest? I'd donate them to local history museums if they don't.

    The hardest problem is trying to read what they say to be honest haha. But yes, there are certainly some interesting documents in there once you take a closer look. Thanks for the suggestion by the way!

    Dont think you're going to get a buyer. There is really no value in this sort of stuff as there is plenty around.

    Maybe donating is the best option then. Thanks
