Mecklenburg County, NC has been in existence since 1762 and is not a burned county - no widespread loss of records.  The deeds have been abstracted by Herman W Ferguson in Abstracts of deed books 15-23, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, 1794-1830; you could also try contacting the Register of Deeds in Charlotte to see whether they'll take requests for specific deeds or do a deed search; or you could look at the Catalog in familysearch for microfilmed deeds and/or an index.  You could also do a search at the North Carolina State Archives MARS Index for land grants.  Barton On Sun, Nov 13, 2016 at 02:13 PM, jbletch--- via ROOTS wrote: > Does anyone know if there are copies of land deeds from Mecklenburg, > NC ca 1820? > If so, is it possible to write to NC and purchase copies? > Think that is going to be the only way to find clues to ancestors. > ===== > If you would prefer digest mode to mail mode, drop a note to > roots-admin@rootsweb.com and ask for the digest... > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > ROOTS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
