PART IV
AN HISTORICAL DIGEST OF THE FIRST VOLUME OF SALISBURY LAND RECORDS
INTRODUCTION
The following digest may be exactly described as an attempted handy reference compilation of the miscellaneous bits of infor- mation of a purely historical, topographical and personal nature, disclosed by a careful reading of the Land Records text. It is, therefore, properly speaking a digest of such data, and such only. For the details of the various transactions mentioned, as well as of a great many others not mentioned, because of their lack of "local color," recourse must be had to the original records. The digest does not include the twenty-seven pages of Town Votes, mentioned below, which together with other rec- ords of that class will be taken up in later issues.
The completeness of any compendium of this kind is wholly dependent upon the selective sense of the compiler, and it is possible that some references, which another might consider of value, have been omitted. The researcher may be assured, how- ever, that a conscientious effort has been made to note here all references to places of residence other than Salisbury, state- ments of relationships, mention of local place-names, early dwellings and industries, etc., etc.,-in short to everything which adds to our knowledge of the town and its inhabitants.
Titles to real estate in Salisbury are derived from one source in three ways,-grants made to individuals by the Colony, prior to the sale of the town in May 1738, compensatory grants made by the Colony to those who had purchased lands of the Indians, and had been obliged to relinquish them to the Colony, which claimed the sole right of preemption,1 and thirdly, in the pur- chases of the "Original Proprietors," who bought their rights at public sale in Hartford on the date above named.
It should be borne in mind that the Original Proprietors' allot- ment and layout records, although they too are "land records," are distinct from the series beginning with the volume covered by this digest, and continued through forty-five volumes, to the present time.
