Does anyone else? I am intrigued that so many people got parts of the former 108 acres. I'm also beginning to wonder if there was more than one Hollands Venture/Adventure. A hundred acres could not have spread from Merrill Bunting's property near Lighthouse Rd to near the Hudson properties close to Jay Patch, nor to the other known properties of the Murrays, unless they were only a few feet wide.

A good bit of the information in these abstracts seems to have no connection to Sandy Branch, but some of it does. Is there some way to
get more detailed facts about some of it? I am especially interested
in the reference to the "first bounder of Hezekiah Hudson" and the
rather odd mention of Buntens Mills. I can identify the bounder but
don't know which direction to go. Is the reference to Buntens Mills a
device for locating another property or what? Ken

Note that in addition to Smallwoods Security which you have been trying to place on the map it mentions "Buntens Mills" (plural but could be a mistake). Also note in 'Files-Land tracts nr. Sandy Branch' that the 1805 deed to Arthur McCabe for 1/2 of Chance states that in 1804 Jonathan Burtin (probably Buntin) had rec'd the other half. This is probably the deed that I have been looking for that proved McCabe and Bunting held the Mill in partnership. Also, since you have studied Buntins Mill does either of these facts give you any more insight into the ownership of the 2 Mills at Selbyville that Beers Atlas shows by 1868?

Nina Lou, Freddie Stevens confirmed that you are right! I have added the other names to the photo (I was wrong on only 2 others, except for the ones I did not know at all.) I am going to add a 1983 picture of Heritage Sunday. Help me on the oldsters!
