Description

"The deeds of Albany County contain a variety of information useful to the genealogical researcher. Some of the deeds give detailed family relationships, especially when the deed is referring to a will or an estate settlement. Occupations, places of residence and relationships are included in many of the deeds." "The years of these abstracts, 1768-1771, refers to the years when the deed was officially recorded. The actual deed itself may have been drawn up many years before, making the time span of the abstracts broader that the 1768-1771 dates indicate." Copied from the book introduction. Located on the ready reference cart.
