Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By: Wlliam D. Bennett, Pub. 1992, Reprinted 2018, (Grants 501-1000), 164 pages, Index, ISBN #0-89308-969-9. Orange County was formed in 1752 from Granville, Johnston and Bladen counties. Orange County lay within the Granville Proprietary. After John Earl Granville died, the land office closed in March 1763. Between 1763 and 1777 it was not possible to gain title to vacant land because there was no one to grant it. When the state opened its land office in 1777, entry takers were selected in the various counties; persons who swore allegiance to the State were then entitled to land at 50 shillings per 100 acres, The entry taker recorded the amount of land, the nearest watercourses, natural boundaries, and adjoining property owners; if in three months no one made a claim for the land, the claimant took a copy of the entry and warrant to the surveyor who then laid off and surveyed the tract., providing two copies of the plat. Sworn chain carriers assisted the surveyors. The paperwork was then forwarded to the Secretary of State, and grants were issued twice a year: in April and October. The grantess had tweleve months to register the grant, or it became void. The authors have abstracted the grants to include: grant number, name of grantee, patent book citation, date of entry, date of issue, entry number, name of grantee, acerage with metes and bounds description, date of survey, name of surveyor and chain carriers, and a facsimile of the plat.

Download or read book Confiscation Act and Pardon and Oblivion Act of North Carolina 1776 1812 written by Stewart Dunaway and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where did the idea of confiscating both personal and real property originate? Was this unique to North Carolina? What was the purpose? Was it successful? These are some of the questions pertaining to this topic. Before answering these questions, the reader should have a basic overview of events, which is provided throughout this book. The topic of this book typically appears in general histories. However, nothing published to date delves into these topics as deep as this book. As with such a broad and old topic, it may lack some obscure documents in other historical societies or archives. Nevertheless, a lot of information was uncovered to provide an in depth review. This book uses only primary documents. If there are tradition and folklore discussions, they are clearly annotated as such. This author illustrates or answers as many questions - from both sides - to ensure a balanced review is provided. These illustrations or examples are also based on primary references (as much as possible).
