EARLY LAND CONVEYANCES


Mostly Under Greenbrier.


N this chapter are lists of some of the earlier land con- veyances that concern Old Monroe. It is not to be understood that in every instance the tract is actually inside the limits of the old county. The descriptions are sometimes too vague to determine this point without special knowledge.


In describing each conveyance, there are given first the name of the grantee and next the name of the grantor. If either party is known to be of another state, or of another county of the Virginias, such fact is mentioned. The Christian name of a wife is given in brackets.


Next, provided the particulars are known, there are given, (1) the number of acres; (2) the price; (3) the locality where the land lies; (4) date of survey and for whom surveyed; (5) date of patent and for whom patented; (6) date of deed. A c following a date means the approximate year.


In many instances only a nominal consideration is named in the deed. This is usually five shillings,-written 5s,-the value of which is 83 cents. When the consideration is expressed in pounds, the let- ter p is written after the number of pounds. To reduce Virginia pounds to dollars, annex one cipher and divide by three. For in- stance, the sum of 3 pounds is equal to $10.


We sometimes hear of a parcel of land being traded for a pair of boots or a pair of buckskin breeches. But ready money was not al- ways at command, and the article was a consideration to hold the deed. It is not to be supposed that the buckskin breeches would ac- tually pay for the land.


An index of grantor names is given at the end of the chapter. Grantee names are given in alphabetical order in the list of deeds.


P means patent. Other abbreviations as in Chapter IX.
