Taylor, Dec 8,1886. The original document is in my Carroll Files. Whereas I, Pattie E. Carrol, and A.H. Taylor are tenants in common of the tract of land set apart to Mrs. Margarett Taylor as the widow of Spencer Taylor as dower by the Circuit Court of Gibson County Tenn at the May Term 1846 of said court to which decree reference is made for a description of said dower tract I owning a one fifth undivided interest in said dower tract and said A.H. Taylor owning four fifths undivided interest in the same said tract of land lying in the 9th Civil district of Gibson County Tennessee and whereas I Pattie E. Carrol and P.H. Carrol her husband and A.H. Taylor have agreed upon a partition of said tract of land and under said agreement he is to have as his four fifths of said tract the lot of land below described and whereas in consideration of me and my husband making him this deed He this day with his wife makes and delivers to me (or us) a similar deed to the other one fifth of said land at the same time this deed is made and delivered. Now therefore in consideration of the premises we Pattie E. Carrol and husband P.H. Carrol hereby transfer and convey to A.H. Taylor all rights title and claim and interest which we have in and to the following described tract of land being a one fifth undivided interest to wit:Beginning at a stake with a large poplar and oak as pointers the North east comer of said dower tract thence South with A.H. Taylors west boundary line two hundred and sixty seven poles to a stake and pointer Pattie E. Carrols north east comer in division of said Margarett Taylors dower thence west 153 1/4 poles the division line between said A.H. Taylor and Pattie E. Carrol to a stake and pointer thence north 267 poles to a hickory thence east 153 1/4 poles to the beginning containing two hundred and fifty five acres, be it more or less, this being four fifths in value of said dower tract of land and we covenant that within ourselves nor anyone claiming under us shall ever set up any claims or titles to said tract of land here conveyed this the 28th day of December, 1886. W.H. Taylor was Pattie’s uncle, I think. I don’t know if this document was ever registered at the Court House.
