According to "A to Zax", to grant means to sell, convey or donate. Without the original papers, you can't tell which it was. Bev ========Original Message======== Subj: [VASHENAN] Moses & Elizabeth Henry Date: 1/15/2004 7:02:05 PM Eastern Standard Time From: diane.kittle@voyager.net To: VASHENAN-L@rootsweb.com Sent from the Internet (Details) According to the land records in the VA Library a Moses Henry and wife Elizabeth conveyed 100 acres of land (that was granted to them by Elijah Roye in 1797) to a Zachariah North of Ohio. Does anyone know of or have a record of a Moses Henry marrying an Elizabeth ??? prior to 1802? Also, when it states that Elijah Roye "granted" them 100 acres does this mean he sold it or conveyed it as one would to a relative? Any assistance would be great.
