    1. Re: [WVPENDLE] Ulrich Conrad's 50 acre parcel
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: mallowslk19 Surnames: Classification: deed Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.westvirginia.counties.pendleton/1801.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Here's a link to google maps and the steps to see the general location of Ulrich's 50a: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl Then type in (or copy and paste): Deer Run, Pendleton, West Virginia At this point an A in an orange marker will come up. That's Deer Run P.O. Ulrich's 240a was southeast of there and the 50a was northwest of the marker. Two properties were between them - John Hainer's 40a and Adam Lough's 138a. Early neighbors Jacob Seybert (88a) and Michael Mallow (470a) were north of Ulrich's 240a Click on the Terrain button at the top of the map then click on the slide to the left to enlarge ( ). You'll see a gap in the mountains where the stream called Deer Run passes through. From the old land descriptions, it seems all of the 50a lay just east and southeast of the gap. Perhaps, someone familiar with the area can give the location of an old corner of the property. I don't have a modern marker and replotting old grants on new maps leaves a lot to be desired. However, this is pretty close. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
