He knew who they were but we certainly don't. One can surmise that they were his deeds, but that is certainly not proven. There is one Marriage Bond with names. Note he uses Glasgow County but Glasgow was not formed until 1791 after these indentures so one can only assume they were Dobbs County not Glasgow.
