Deed of Gift. Solomon gives his daughter Achsah title to “negro woman named Harriet and her increase”. The document says Achsah gave Solomon $1 to further seal the deal. There is no further information about Harriet or her relationships. “Achsah” is my best guess at this unusual name, which may be “Achsoh”. Document was signed February 24, 1846, presented in Court August 1846, and registered August 14, 1846
