    3. Hello All - I've come upon a disk I thought I had lost with some transcriptions of wills and deeds I had worked long and hard on. For all of you descended from Isacc and his son Harget, this land deed may be of interest. I copied the spelling and capitalization just as I saw it on the deed in the Courthouse. Hope you like it!
