Land was wealth to our ancestors. The deed-a record of the transfer of land-can be a genealogical goldmine to the genealogist. Not only does it put a person in a specific place at a specific time, it can identify relationships between buyer, seller, and sometimes previous owners; name spouses, occupations, and neighbors; and provide hints regarding the affluence or poverty of those involved. Lancaster County-known as Pennsylvania Dutch Country was one of the earliest areas settled areas. Digital images of county deeds from 1729 through 1986 are available online through the Recorder of Deeds. However, only those from 1981 onwards are searchable. This book provides a full-name index to buyer (grantor) and seller (grantee) for deed books E through H which cover the period 1755 through 1769. Each index listing includes the names of grantor and grantee, the book, the date the deed was written, the date it was recorded, and both page number and online image number for easy access to the correct entry.
