Hi,
In a 1780’s deed (from the colonies) there are a couple of words I’m having difficulty decrypting..
In Word1a.png:
“of Buckhorn Including the land & plantation where the said Griffin now lives (????)”
What’s in the ()?
“Begining at a black oak the 2nd corner of 320 acres ?????? ???????? by David Mimms & from him convyd (conveyed) to said Griffin then”
and what are the two words following “320 acres”?
In Word1b.png the word following “320 acres” is repeated again
“being part of sa(said) 320 acres ????? then on Hayes line a SoEt(South East) corner to the corner of”
In Word1c.png following “being part of” is the word following “320 acres” above repeated again.
“320 acre tract then on that line ?? (North?) to the Begining it being part of a ????? that said Griffin bought off Elkins containing 67 acres”
Any help is very much appreciated!
Cheers,
Phred
