Deed. This document may not be relevant for People Not Property, but I (the abstractor) am including it because it involves trading a period of labor for land. I’m assuming all the people involved are White, since I’ve seen their names in other documents in Deed Book 6. In this document, Mary, Barbara and Molly Mikle transfer to Alexander Mikle a 235 acre property “…in the consideration of the sum of seven years labour & maintenance and also a place valued at three hundred Dollars (where Henry Grubb formerly lived)”… No information about the Mikles or their relationships. The document was signed June 15, 1838, presented in Court August 1838 and registered October 22, 1838. (Abstractor’s note: Davidson County Deed Books 6 and 7 were microfilmed By the North Carolina Dept. of Archives and History, on one roll of microfilm (December 9, 1966). The “roll” has internal identification number 1575, and has Family Search identification number 007539232. Book 6 pages 1-543 are on microfilm images 8-297, and Book 7 pages 1-564 are on microfilm images 302-600. The current document starts on image 216, in the Book 6 section.)
