    1. Re: [WVHARRIS] Land records pre-1785
    2. Jim, I was just trying to clear out some old msgs and found this. Do you still have the book? I would love to find out about Abraham Exline; his father John was in Rev. & moved to OH ( I assume for bounty land). Abe & another bro stayed there. So John had property in Harrison Co. & I've never found what happened to it. But I think Abraham bought his. If you still have the book, cd you please check?? THANKS!!!
