This noteworthy volume contains State-issued land grants issued between 1778 through 1934 to pioneers of Guilford County, North Carolina. Each entry includes:

Name of Grantee Grant Number Entry Number Entry Date Issue Date (when available)

Book Number Page Number Number of Acres Location of Property

Some grant-named claimants are shown with expanded location information, while others appear with minimum detail. Background enlightenment was limited to available memoranda given by surveyors or appointed officials.

Researchers will find "original' Guilford County land records a happy hunting ground as an untold number of new and familiar names have come to light with the unfolding of grant documents. With the scarcity of paper in the post Revolutionary period, the required description of hundreds of acres was sometime recorded on a half page or less.

 

Example

File #353, Connor, James. Grant #335, Entry #720, Entry Date: 23 Nov. 1778, Issue Date: 1 March 1780, Book #33, Page #401, 212 Acres located beside Beaver Island Creek - Theophilus Lacy and John Watson.
