A quick note to say that in a couple of weeks I will be resuming the puzzler series. Life is calming down a tad - just a tad! A little note about deeds. You will find in many wills where the deceased had willed land to his heirs. Often the heirs did not want or need the land and later sold their portion to other family members or others. If time had passed, it is possible that some of these heirs had moved from the county or state. It was required that each heir be contacted to see if it was their desire to sell their portion. This took a great deal of time in some instances when they had to be located by officials in the original county. If and when located, the heir would have to go to their county clerk's office where they resided and file their response, yes or no, have it notarized and then the papers had to work their way back (often by horseback) to the original county where the land was located. Their consent or denial would then become part of the official documents of the deed. So, if you find a goodly time lapse in completing a deed - this is one of the reasons.

I descend from the Settle line of Francis,George,Polly D. Settle and Tilman Huffman. It will be such a pleasure to be able to add a rifle picture to my lineage. There is a fellow in Denton, TX that reportedly also has a Settle rifle but I doubt that I will ever be able to find him. Our son has a small collection of guns and it would be so special for us to have a picture of our ancestor's gun. Again, thank you for this consideration.
