Manuscript Document Recording the Conveyance of Land in Colonial Connecticut.

  • New London: , 31st October 1723.
By [Colonial].
Folio sheet, docketed on reverse, 1 pp. Separation at folds somewhat crudely repaired with tape, some repairs more recent, some chips, tears, and folds along edges, one or two letters affected, small 1/4 inch hole in lower section in the middle, affecting one letter, some aging and foxing; still quite good overall. This is essentially a deed that records the transfer of land from Eunice Clark of Hillingsworth, in the county of New London to Jabez Story of Norwich. Based on the price of the land sold, forty-two shillings, and comments in the document, the buyer and seller appear to be related. She indicates that the land was owned a one time by her grandfather Samuel Story. Clark signature is on the document.
