This volume of land records contains abstracts of the first two volumes of deeds for Grayson County, Virginia, spanning the years 1793-1811. The lands were formerly in Montgomery and Wythe counties, and shows a transitional period of westward migration. Many Quakers, Germans, Baptists, and other groups had settled in the area, and by the time of the 1810s, many of the Quaker families were leaving and headed northwest. Many of the deeds in this volume cover the area of the county which is now Carroll County. Featured in this deed are a collection of unrecorded and loose deed papers from Grayson County, spanning the years 1793 to 1840. These abstractions reduce the deed to the pertinent and most important information while still including all geographical and genealogical information found in each record. A full name index is found at the end of the book.
