Hello All, I am following a trail of deeds that may help me find out more about my ancestor, Edward Hatton, who died and left a will in York County dated 1777. It appears that he had land in Lancaster County that later became Chester County that later became York County? Is this possible? Thank you in advance Diane Costello
