J.D. Parker  (clearly says Parker, but his name was
Parmer throughout the deed, so I believe this is a
clerical copying error)

Signed, sealed and delivered in presence of:
M.S. Kinney, Thos. M. Hamilton, Notary Public ex off JP

Note: Long delay in recording. Sold 1870

Samuel Ruffin was the son of R.V.C. Ruffin. Joshua
Parmer married the daughter of R.V.C. Ruffin, Sarah E.
Ruffin

I believe these were the only two living children able
to inherit at the time of their father's death.

In the 1880 Census these two families (Parmer and
Ruffin) are living in Marion County near Ft. Perry.
