Download or read book Pioneers of Old Monocacy written by Grace L. Tracey and published by Genealogical Publishing Com. This book was released on 1987 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a definitive account of the land and the people of Old Monocacy in early Frederick County, Maryland. The outgrowth of a project begun by Grace L. Tracey and completed by John P. Dern, it presents a detailed account of landholdings in that part of western Maryland that eventually became Frederick County. At the same time it provides a history of the inhabitants of the area, from the early traders and explorers to the farsighted investors and speculators, from the original Quaker settlers to the Germans of central Frederick County. In essence, the book has a dual focus. First it attempts to locate and describe the land of the early settlers. This is done by means of a superb series of plat maps, drawn to scale from original surveys and based both on certificates of survey and patents. These show, in precise configurations, the exact locations of the various grants and lots, the names of owners and occupiers, the dates of surveys and patents, and the names of contiguous land owners. Second, it identifies the early settlers and inhabitants of the area, carefully following them through deeds, wills, and inventories, judgment records, and rent rolls. Finally, in meticulously compiled appendices it provides a chronological list of surveys between 1721 and 1743; an alphabetical list of surveys, giving dates, page reference--text and maps--and patent references; a list of taxables for 1733-34; and a list of the early German settlers of Frederick County, showing their religion, their location, dates of arrival, and their earliest records in the county.

There continues to be records of confiscated British property sales, including the Frederick Town lots and the ground rents sold. Other towns continued to be developed and lots sold, the newest, "Berlin" - today Brunswick, platted in 1787 by Leonard Smith, who in 1774, had platted "New Town" on Eleanor Medley's land, today called Jefferson. Also in this volume are the continuing sales of town lots for Emmitsburg, Creagerstown, Middletown, Westminster, and Liberty Town: the whole town was sold to a new proprietor, Richard Coale. Frederick Town had Additional Lots sold in adjoining Bentztown, and also look to Dulaney's Lot and Tasker's Chance for further developments in Frederick. Check the index under town names for churches and other places named within towns. Although it is becoming increasingly easy to access these records online through the Maryland State Archives, the value that abstracts offer in locating records through their every-name indexing, cannot be matched with the indexes available online, which only list the principals in an indenture. The current indexes were prepared by the circuit clerks to identify property owners, and to assist the clerks in land title searches and often omitted other items. Users of these volumes understand much more is involved in family research. Deeds can be particularly useful in identifying family relationships, and relationships to slave families. Abstracts are best used as brief guides and indexes to original records, and to find people mentioned in deeds who would otherwise be lost in the records. This series of abstracts focuses on the names of parties in the deeds. This volume contains three indices to aid the researcher: an index to full-names, which includes an occupation section (occupations will sometimes help distinguish a man); an index to place names; and an index to land tract names. The name index includes slaves and free, mulattos and Negroes, listed under "Negro" to make identification easier for researchers. The name index also includes town lots. 2021, 81/2x11, paper, index, 270 pp

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The system of land tenure in Maryland has its roots in the policies and procedures of the Lords Baltimore, who were granted almost royal powers by the King of England.

This is not a mere reprint; it is a completely new publication of the original text, with a new foreword by Joel Leininger and new indices.
