Hello Sandra,
Yes indeed. Thank you so much! In 1787 Ludwig was granted a patent to land
103' X 206' wherein he would pay yearly on July 1 to Joseph Champline et al
rent of 3 shillings and 6 pence sterling. Should I be able to order this
book through my local bookstore or is there another source for it? It sounds
fascinating and I would love to read it.
