Deed books typically contain records of land transactions, mortgages, bills of sale, slave manumissions, powers of attorney, and sometimes marriage contracts. Deed books should always be consulted when doing genealogical research. This volume contains records of "Deeds, Bonds and Letters of Attorney" from Essex County, Virginia Deed Book 19, 1728-1733, beginning on page 1 through page 441, for courts held 18 March 1728 through 17 July 1733. Records generally include the full names of all persons involved in the transaction (grantor, grantee, witnesses, and court officials), sum paid, description and location of property, date of transaction and date recorded. An every-name, place and subject index adds to the value of this work.
