Receipts, 1808-1830.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/41000412

Two receipts, one dated Apr. 1, 1808 and issued at Buffalo Creek, and the other dated June 5, 1830 and issued at Buffalo, for $100 annuity payments to Young King. The 1830 receipt, a signed duplicate, contains Young King's mark, and indicates that he had received his payment from Herman Le Roy, one of the trustees of "Certain Seneca Chiefs, by the hands of Jasper Parrish late Sub Agent of the United States to the Six Nations of Indians." The 1808 receipt, which appears to have been signed for Young King, is also received of Herman Le Roy, as well as William Bayard, a Mr. McEvers, and Thomas Morris, by the hand of Erastus Granger.
