As it says in the beginning paragraph of each post, these are
*abstracts*. The actual deeds vary in length from a page to several
pages, much of each repetitive legal terminology. The abstracts are just
the "meat" of the document, excluding all the legal verbalese. The
abstracts were made using the original books of recorded deeds in Bergen
County. These deeds have also been microfilmed, and are available on
order from any local LDS Family History Center. If you want to read
the exact deed yourself, consider these postings as clues on where to
look for uour deed of interest, and what film to order (date of record;
deed book identification; page number). It's always a good idea to look
at the document yourself for any information that may have been
incorrectly interpreted, missed, etc. Hope this helps clarify these
postings of Bergen County deed abstracts.

Regards.
