Forward — where this land went

⛔ The record we hold stops here: no later instrument we have read cites this one, and no later conveyance by the grantee is linked by name. The assessor does not cite book 2 page 37 (its history for each parcel goes back only a few transfers). The index is complete to 1987, but only about half the instruments of 1936-1965 have been transcribed (some 6,000 were never imaged), and nothing after 1965 has been, so a citation to this deed may sit in a page not yet read.
