Additional Comments:
The dates given are those on a photocopy original records, so apparently the 
deed was not filed for some years or there was an error in the writing. T.M. 
WALTON is Dr. Thomas Marion WALTON (CSA) husband of Mary Elizabeth JOHNSON. 
Sellers of the 'wall' was W.A. HUDSON and of the strip of land was J.C. and 
J.K. EDWARDS.
