    3. I have no connection with ebay or with this document but thought someone might have an interest in it. There is a picture of the document included at the site. Pat http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=421364673 This handsome document dated 1795 in Westfield, Hampshire Co., MA is between Warham PARKS and Timothy DEWEY. Signed by PARKS and wife Rebecca and witnessed by John INGERSOLL, Julia PARKS and Mary PARKS. It is for two certain pieces of land one bounded by the "Inner Common so called" and the other names mentioned are: Samuel BUEL and Thomas NOBLE.The condition is "rough around the edges:>)" The paper, however, is not as fragile as it may appear. Nice BOLD signatures. I personally think it would be smashing framed. It has great color and the traditional paper covered seal. Guaranteed authentic. Please email me with any questions. I believe Warham PARKS is the son of Elisha PARKS and Mary INGERSOLL (hence the connection).He is undoubtedly the Warham PARKS who m Rebecca GORHAM in Westfield in 1791. Just a beautiful doc from an asthetic point of view. No Reserve.
