Conveyances In Borden Tract
1741-1780
(from: The History of Rockbridge County by Oren Morton, published in 1920)
The name of purchaser is followed in consecutive order by the acreage,
the price, the year of sale, the description,--when definitley given,--and
the first transfer prior to the organization of Rockbridge. When it is not
quite clearly certain that the transfer is of the acrual tract in question,
a question mark is put down. The original sales recorded in Orange [Co.]
are indicated by a star attached to the date of purchase. All other sales
are recorded in Augusta. P, s, and d are reduced pounds to dollars add one
cipher and divide by three. The shilling is 16 2-3 cents, and the penny is
1 7-18 vents. The name of a consort (living wife) is in parentheses.
