Additional Comments: Copied from original Deed Book A, Offices of the Superior Court, Newnan, Coweta County, Georgia Page 184 Error in original. The clerk made an error in the date of the witnesses' statement above. It should be Jan. 6, 1829. The deed was signed 24 Dec. 1828 and witnesses could not have been deposed in January of 1828. The deposition clearly says "January 1828" but it had to be January of 1829.
