I thought I had looked in all the appropriate indexes and initially could not find where he sold the property.  It&#8217;s worth noting that there might not necessarily have been any deed where he sold the property in a land deed. It may have been sold for back taxes (in which case he&#8217;s not the seller). It may have been foreclosed upon if he had a mortgage (in which case he&#8217;s not the seller). It may have been transferred in a will and not mentioned in a land deed specifically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was also possible that I overlooked it in the grantor index. That&#8217;s apparently what I did because two property deeds where Samuel sold the two parcels were located. It always pays to take a second look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And Sargent is one of those names that sometimes has an &#8220;s&#8221; added to the end of it. That&#8217;s a good reminder to not get too serious about spelling, because the clerks often didn&#8217;t. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Locating the deeds was a good find. Unfortunately they didn&#8217;t help me tie Samuel to any other locations other than Addison County, Vermont, but it helps to complete my picture of him. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I located two property deeds where Samuel Sargent purchased property in Addison County, Vermont, in the 1830s.
