From the Seller: "From Teverner BEALE of Shenandoah County (Virginia) to Isaac ZANE of Frederick County for land in Hampshire County on the Cacapehon river. Nov. 4, 1778. Witnesses include Gabriel JONES (well worth reading about! ), Peter HOG, John MAGILL, Edwin YOUNG and Geo. A. (illegible). 8" x 3. 5". Of Isaac ZANE much has been written, so that none is needed here. Collectors need to remember that the grantee did not sign an indenture unless he waived title in favor of someone else. Thus this ZANE association item is not signed, though Gabriel JONES' signature as attorney and crusty individualist is sufficient for this item. Four-inch split at one fold."

A History of Pendleton County, West Virginia
"After dwelling at some length on the history of Pendleton County from its origins as part of Augusta County, Virginia, this work brings its full weight to bear on hundreds of family histories, with references to more than 15,000 individuals, each meticulously developed from the public records at Richmond and at the county seats of Augusta and Rockingham. As a rule, Morton traces the entire adult posterity of each Pendleton County pioneer and sub-pioneer ancestor in a perfectly fluid progression, and furnishes much in the way of personal accounts and family traditions. "
