Stevens Gray C. C. Additional Comments: Note from transcriber: My Farmer family research, along with all of my record transcriptions are purely a labor of love. I’ve tried my best to keep true to the original spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and length of sentences found in this land deed. Some words were extremely hard to read, so if you find I have made a mistake then please, let me know and corrections will be made. It is the opinion of this transcriber & researcher that the witness in the above deed, James Farmer Junr., is one and the same as my ancestor James Farmer (b: circa 1760, aka: Thomas James Farmer, Sr.), found in early Jackson, Gwinnett, Henry, & Newton County, Georgia. A copy of this deed can be found in the LDS Library located in Salt Lake City, UT.
