From NINIGRALL GEORGE life
To KINYON JOHN
Consideration two Hundred and forty seven pounds Sterling Money of England
Premises land and premises (Newport, Kingsbridge, Rhode Island)

Back — where this land came from

This is the first alienation
The grantor is the sachem or the tribe, so this instrument is where this ground enters the town's land evidence. Behind it stands the reserved tract of 1709 — the Narragansett reservation, about 64 square miles, carved out of the roughly 130,000 acres of "vacant lands" Ninigret quit-claimed to the Colony on 28 March 1709 (State Records, Land Evidence 3, p. 273; Tucker 1877, pp. 23–24) — and, before the reservation, the Narragansett country itself. There is no earlier deed to follow; the land is followed from here by its bounds and its abutters. From Ninigret — every such instrument ▸

Forward — where this land went

The grantee's later conveyances, by name — the man, not necessarily this land; the one that cites this deed as its source is the land
