Book Description
This book contains transcripts of deed records pertaining to land in and adjoining the village of Chapel Hill, N.C. Established in 1790s, this village and adjoining State University (University of North Carolina) began with the concerted effort of a number of Orange County (and Hillsborough) residents. These early pioneers knew that higher education was necessary, and a site was selected. The site for the campus included a small village or town, which would support the needs of the students and faculty. These deed records are transcripts providing just the pertinent information including; metes and bounds of the lot or property; grantee and grantor names; price; size in acreage; and associated information. It is this associated information that can be a treasure-trove for genealogists and historians alike (i.e. relationships, marriages, race, death dates, inheritance, will books, water/mineral rights, neighbors, etc.)
