| Summary: |
"While only one of several useful original genealogical research sources, the recorded deeds of a county answer many questions of family relationships, residences, and economic conditions of a pioneer family. The purpose of this work is intended to broaden the grantor-grantee indices, normally used to find the buyers and sellers of real estate. The intent is to help searchers quickly locate adjoining landowners, as well as all heirs, names in the early chain of deeds, and witnesses, and locate many 'lost' persons from deeds never recorded anywhere. . . . Oaths of Allegiance: Included in this edition are hitherto unpublished oaths of allegiance for Lancaster County, required during the Revolutionary War by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania."--page iii. |
