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 index is complete to 1987, so the gap is in the words: deeds of this era seldom cite book and page, and only about half the instruments of 1936-1965 have been transcribed (some 6,000 were never imaged), so a citation to this deed may sit in a page not yet read.

The page as recorded

deed_walker_v1.9_2026-10-10 · the index is the town's own (i2l.uslandrecords.com); transcripts, chains and the assessor's cards are the Perry Machine's reading of it. Where the record we hold runs out, the page says so.
