Using Deeds and other land records can provide important evidence for genealogical 
researchers, and are fairly easy to locate and to use in the county court houses, if 
the land records of the area have survived. We should keep in mind that deeds list 
specific names, often giving kinship, as well as locations in a specific place and 
time period.
