• Notes

  Pally Palatiah Shelton The following deed was received from the Jefferson County TN Director of Archives: January 24, 1795 Jefferson County deed for 245 acres from Palatiah Shelton to John Loe. Because those 245 acres had the same legal description as the 245 acres in the September 6, 1790 Hawkins County deed from Jesse Riggs to Pally Shelton, it is clear these deeds involved the same land and Pally Shelton and Palatiah Shelton were the same man. "This indenture made the twenty fourth day of January in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred & ninety five between Pallatial Shelton of the County of Hawkins & Territory of the United States of the one part and John Loe of the County and territory aforesaid of the other part Witnesseth that the said Pallatial Shelton, for and in consideration of the sum of two hundred pounds to him in hand paid, the receipt is hereby acknowledged hath & by these presents doth grant bargain sell alien Enfeoff and confirm unto the said John Loe his heirs and assigns forever a certain tract of land containing two hundred and forty five acres be the same more or less lying and being in the County of Jefferson and territory aforesaid beginning at a white oak on Spurgins corner thence south three hundred and forty poles to a stake thence west two hundred and twenty eight poles to a stake thence north fifty seven degrees east four hundred & ten poles to the beginning, with all and singular the woods waters water courses profits commodities & hereditaments and appurtenances whatsoever to the said tract of land belonging or appertaining and the reversion and reversions remainders & remaining rents and issues hereof and all the estates right title interest property claims and demands of him the said Pallatial Shelton his heirs and assigns and to the same and every part and parcel thereof either in law or equity to have and to hold the said two hundred and forty five acres of land with the appurtenances unto the said John Loe his heirs and assigns forever against the lawful title claims demands of all and every person or persons whatsoever shall and will warrant forever defend by these presents in witness whereof the said Pallatial Shelton hath hereunto set his hand and seal this day and year first above written signed sealed and delivered in presence of Christopher Hussy affirmed." In the same handwriting there is a signature below the body of the record for Palatiah Shelton as the seller. Also in the same handwriting above the body of the record are "Palatiah Shelton to John Loe Registered 9th March 1795"
