Deeds [microform], 1835-1849.

Deeds are conveyances which transfer title of property from one party to another. The deed gives date of instrument, names of grantor (seller) and grantee (purchaser), location of property, amount paid for the property, grantor's notarized signature, certification of county clerk, and date recorded. Deeds are recorded in books by the county clerk. The deed book contains the body of the deed and may include other associated instruments concerning real estate, such as power of attorney, releases, mortgages, and affidavit of descent. Earlier deed books, especially those of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, may contain assignments, emancipations, gifts, partitions, releases, trusts, agreements and contracts, sheriff's deeds, warranty deeds, and commissioner's deeds.
