Cumberland Co KY Deed Book A page 60-61

Be it known to all to whom it may concern that I William Thurmon formerly of 
the County of Cumberland and State of Kentucky did on a certain day in the year 
one thousand eight hundred and four bargain and sell for a valuable 
consideration which I acknowledged to have received; to John Turney of the 
county and state aforesaid a right I had to a certain tract of land containing 
one hundred acres for which said land I had a certificate granted to me by the 
court and the county aforesaid under the law for granting relief to the 
settlers on the south side of Green River which said land is lying on 
Cumberland River on the south side a small distance below the mouth of Clover 
Creek a branch of said river about three miles below the town of Burksville and 
bounded as follows (as well as I can recollect).  Beginning on the river at the 
lower corner of an entry originally made in the name of Thomas F. Lowry of two 
hundred acres running thence down the said river so low as to include the next 
branch which empties into the river below on the same side, thence out from the 
river so far as to include the quantity according to law.  Likewise I did 
bargain and sell unto the said John Turney a certain tract of land granted to 
under the authority aforesaid lying and being in the county aforesaid on the 
aforesaid Clover Creek adjoining the upper line of the aforesaid entry of 200 
acres in the name of Thomas F. Loury and running up the creek for quantity; 
which said rights I did agree to relinquish to the said Turney.  In 
consideration of the above statement I do by these presents constitute and 
appoint my friend Ambrose Doss my attorney and I do hereby authorize him the 
Doss to go before the said court of Cumberland County and then and there in my 
name relinquish all right title, claim or demand which I or my heirs have 
heretofore or may hereafter have in and to the aforesaid two tracts of land to 
the said John Turney his heirs or assign in as full and ample manner as if I 
myself were present and further I do hereby authorize my said attorney to do 
such other acts as shall be necessary to serve the right and title in and to 
the aforesaid land unto the aforesaid John Turney his heirs and assigns.  In 
witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 21st day of June 
1805.  

William Thurmon  (LS)

Signed and sealed in the presence of Abel Cox
