- William McKown property dealings 1795-1835


Property purchased and sold by William McKown in Albany County 1795-1835, and devised in his will (dated 1815; probated 24 October 1843)
a links to deed book and page numbers are to text transcripts or abstracts made from the scanned images of the microfilm documents;
  files of these scans are linked to the
pdf
          logo symbol; image quality is variable.
  Note that Albany County deeds before 1874 were transcribed sometime in the earlier part of the 20th century to typescript and the original handwritten versions are
 apparently not available. Transcription errors from this process are clearly present in a number of these typescript copies of the pre-1874 documents.
William McKown's will shows image scans of the original book of wills, and we provide a text file transcript made from those scanned pages.
