In 1805 Sir Horace sold as much of the old estate as he could, but was not able to sell the settled (i.e. his father's) estate see U24/T4, U24/430. Linton Place and certain other Linton properties were bought in by James Mann (son-in-law of Sir Horace) and were subsequently sold in 1820 by him to his namesake James Mann (James Cornwallis; he assumed the name Mann in 1814 by royal licence in accordance with the terms of the Will of Galfridus.), son of James Cornwallis, Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry. Meanwhile this James Mann had inherited the settled estates upon the death of Sir Horace (his uncle) in 1814. He succeeded his father as 5th Earl Cornwallis in 1824
